It is believed that our current day bingo originated from an Italian Lottery called Lo Giuoco del Lotto d'Italia in 1530

That sounds about right.   I read something similar to that a few years ago, can't lay my fingers on it now.

Hang loose Irish-Valk, if crappy weather shows up, this will be in full force again.

Right now the PMS is being worked off.    LOL.......

I've even gotten a few miles on my Chevy Trike.

Valkyrie, I can't hold it up at times, so I have to wait on my 2 younger kids to add them up for me.    Daughter is gettin pretty good at wheeling it around.  Especially since she hasn't been riding in the past 11 years.   Son got a wakeup call a few days ago, he got beat by MGM in a Drag Race.    His 113" S&S wasn't as fast as he had thought.

My nephew cleaned his clock 3 out of 4 times.   By the way he rides a Valkyrie I/S,  1st time he wasn't used to the Kickshifter and while he was trying to find 2nd, the S&S pulled away.   Return trip and 2 more, MGM showed the 113" nothing but taillights.

This view.

When ya use the carb cleaner, run it under 3,000 RPM, long enough for the juice to get into the carbs.    Park the bike and let the juice work on any hard stuff not supposed to be there.

Tomorrow run it around town under 3,000 rpm's for a little while.

Let it set overnight again.

Next day ride it normally and see if ya get an results.    If not, you might have to pull the carbs and do a professional cleaning on them and then replace the jets also.    I recommend staying with the 35's, but a lot of people say go to the 38's.

With that thought in mind, I'll step down and not make anymore suggestions.   I've run 35's for over 242K MILES, NO PROBLEMS.

Be patient Grasshopper, if it is gummed up, it is not going to clean it up on one dose.  You will want all the crap out of the jets when ya sync the carbs or you are just wasting your time.

So take a chill pill and go grab a b**r.

No problem here may even go get another bottle of techron after this tank Is gone putting a bottle that is for a 12 gallons of gas into a 5.9 tank is pretty strong stuff just hope with all that cleaner in there it doesn’t call something else break off in the tank or lines.
