@BkerChuck

I finally found time yesterday evening to take another look at my rebuilt carbs, and indeed discovered the small tube that connects the primary fuel passage from the first carb to the second.

I separated the carbs and the tube literally fell out. The o-rings are totally hardened and flattened . I will be replacing them today, reassembling and will attempt to swap them out on the bike again tomorrow.

Thanks for the tip!

 

The SC? I got it used from @TacoCat when he was parting out his truck. I i got it for $3400 installed? I had a shop swap both of our trucks - he did it in 5 hours.. both trucks were running. @DOUBLLD has a LSX Twin Turbo DCSB himself. Its awesome. Dd.tt.tacoma on Instagram

 

Not the supercharger. The Honda. What's the going rate for a 2000 Civic with 185k miles?

 

Glad to be of assistance! Make sure to get correct metric o-rings and that they're gasoline compatible. In other words don't go to Harbor Freight for them!

 

HF does have metric nitrile o-rings. Do you think those would be ok?

 

Oh, i paid $1900. That comes with custom dented fender, and broken outside rear door handles. I looked up all parts that need to be replaced on Rock Auto, and my total was $70 shipped.

 

Gotta love Rock Auto!

 

Hook it up !

 

Haha. Im not going to do anything, even though I kinda want to

 

Do you have any shops near you that sell hydraulic hoses, fittings, and seals? I happen to work for a shop that repairs hydraulic cylinders so I have access to a pretty wide selection of that stuff. We have several suppliers we deal with in PA. I'd suggest you try one of those type laces before HF. Their tolerances are just a little too loose in my opinion. You could get lucky and they might fit but how many times do you want to yank the carbs?

 

Got a little scoot in just because. Rev'it jacket feels nice and airy....when you're moving! In traffic it gets warm quick. Especially with our 70% humidity today. That's low compared to the last week! So far, me like! I really feel "naked" compared to my scorpion riding shirt.

Get out and ride y'all!

 

I think I might today

 

You won’t

 

I just woke up from night shift. Gotta see if my new sunglasses were delivered and get some breakfast. Then ill see.

its 89 and 58% humidity.. yay.... not going to wear a jacket today.

@LocoLocal want to ride to a different Ducati dealership? Check your texts

 

Lot of excuses from you

 

Still waiting on that text

 

@LocoLocal is out, got my sunglasses, and had some breakfast. Got all the things done that I wanted today.. guess I have to ride @uhplifted

 

I mailed in the change of title on my DRZ (bought used) along with all other paperwork on 4/26. Everything was in good order. Still don't have title in my name or registration. Hate to ride dirty but what am I supposed to do, not ride? Doesn't seem like a feasible option. Good luck!
