    I've been having carb issues which all started by my filling my bike after a fuel truck just left the gas station (where I will never buy gas again)

    I replace the fuel filter with one that looked just like the one that was pluged....... my story begins,

    I had so much junk in my carbs (well theyre rebuilt now) and I kept having top end issues over 7K rpm but I've adjusted those floats to a nats _ _ _ (you know)
    Still the same thing, acts like it is running out of gas above 6.5 K

    Today I got Napa to special order me in some clear fuel filters with paper elements (been using the small filters with a little stone in them)

    Now she screams like the bike I once knew!!

    ANY ONE WANNA RACE?! :twisted:

    All you need is to go to Advance Discount Auto parts or Autozone and look back with like the motorcycle oil and lawnmower stuff and the inline clear plastic fuel filters are only $1.44
