carb to cylinder. PS: The carb to airbox boots were perfect and needed no attention.

1+ year ago I did a wintergreen job on a set of BB carb boots. 1 part wintergreen oil to 4 parts 99.9% isopropyl alcohol. Boots were rock hard, lets call that 0% as new. 2-3 week soak until they reached a point where they weren't getting any softer. I'd say 50-60% as new. Also, they were a very very loose fit on the carbs. Rinsed and let air dry for 2-3 weeks, where they eventually shrank back to size. Covered with red rubber grease and put into zip lock bag. Just checked and they are somewhat hard again. I'd say 15-25% as new.....just about good enough to reuse in a pinch.

1:37mins, that's more like it. I like humor, even gallows humor. If I get food poisoning once every 10 years, more or less, does this mean I am good to go for the rest of the decade?

Most people who encounter me, going forward think.......what would fizzy do? In this case, re: the simple act of eating peanuts,....do the opposite. 🍺

There is some good advice in this article that I didn't follow, I quote: "Work with your team to create a Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) plan, identify potential contamination points, and create solutions"

Apologies' ahead of time for the clickbait title, but I get paid by the word. They are called redskin peanuts, unsalted, come in a plastic bag. Swallowed a handful, then realized 3 or 4 of them had an unpleasant texture and taste. After 2 1/2 hours, or about the time it takes to watch a utube vid from zero, I knew I had food poisoning. Bad. Anyway, I know of course you can get this from fruit and veg, not just spoiled meat, but 3-4 peanuts? Not sure how to proceed on the nut front now. I guess avoid for a while until I forget? Be warned.

Recommend you install a small voltmeter on the dash. Voltage should be mid 12V to MAX 14.5V. Low voltage is usually either a bad battery or a weak stator High voltage is almost always a bad R/R. High voltage, ride straight home at 1500rpm. The old style R/R (OEM on blackbird) will get quite hot during normal use. New style R/R (FH012AA, FH020AA, SH847) as explained in the link I left in previous post, do not get hot. Heat is the enemy of small electrical devices.

As LEDs consume less power than incandescent bulbs, counterintuitively, they put more strain on the charging system. More specifically, the R/R. If you go all LED, then upgrade the R/R to a real deal (as opposed to fake, which online sites are littered with) mosfet type. Home (roadstercycle.com) Not a bad idea to upgrade anyway, as this new kit is far superior.

2002 not the same as 1999/2000. ECU Wiring loom Dash Fuel level sender FPR Fan thermostat More electrical stuff More again if California Mechanical, the same I think

No, too soon. -
Longer than that unless you learn how to deal 🍺
