   Great thanks to Dave (AKA BigMac) for helping me with maintenance today. . .  Well i helped him by picking up a few tools, having some soda and watching very carefully, he did all the work.  Wink

   Desmog, add Galfer Clutch line and bleed, replace fitting from prior Galfer brake lines that was defective (excellent customer service replacing the part), synchronize carbs, valve adjustment.  he is the best, if you need help in SoCal, get in touch with him.

Dave working hard.  Wow i captured him in the mirror also.



This is all the junk under the tank just waiting to fail.



what is all this crap doing there?



valves were pretty good but Dave got them right on!



Oh, and mine was made in USA!!   I am now good to go for a while.  Thanks Dave!!

  Bike is not a CA model so no canister.  Front right metal tube was left and just plugged.  Others removed, don't think everything made it to picture.
