Re: wont start
Apply vacuum to he petcock with either a mity-vac or just a piece of hose and some suction for a few seconds and let the carbs fill before you try to start the bike.....with dry carbs it will take a while just cranking it for the carbs to fill
Loud pipes don't save lives, knowing how to ride your bike will save your life.
