Hi everyone,
Bike is out of hibernation, running 100% top shape.
Just changed the oil once again, oil was very clean, nothing wrong with it.
Bike starts on first try, no hesitating at all at any rpm range.
But.. after oil change, I checked the oil 2-3 days later and it smells like gas/ looks liquidy. (but still at proper level)
The carbs were drained before storage and were only filled about 1week ago after the oil change to start her up. My fuel petcock works since I tried running it with the gas @ off and it finally died.
I'm planning on just changing the oil again/new filter and checking my vent hoses/pipes + running carb cleaner in my next tank.
Is the most obvious problem a stuck float valve on one of the carbs??
Thanks for your help
