Re: 75 GL1000 Restoration progress
You do now the air jets need to be reduced for a just off idle lean flat spot, so you may just as well fix that right way if not already done. That is a Randell tip and can be done with the carbs on the bike. Sorry if you already did that.

You should remember that it's peace of mind you're after and not just fixing the machine. R.Pirsig

Ok, I'm done. Hah, we are never done. What I mean is that I'm done working on her because I'm riding her. Off idle/low throttle problem cause has been identified and mostly fixed so I will not be adding anything else to this thread. Thanks to all who have assisted in numerous ways!
