Goody and I went into PA and pulled the carb bank for a fellow
rider. Seems Honda dealer could not find the fuel leak and the reason
for the slow speed stumble.
This is what we found. First as we all know the slow speed jets
were plugged. Next we found the O rings on the end of the Tee,s
that are between the carbs leaked.
Long story short Goody got the carbs cleaned and the O rings relaced.
Then after playing games with the springs on the adjusters we did a carb sync.
And the Dragon was back to her old self.
Took us two trips but we got it done.
