    Fire! Fire! Fire!

    What's up guys, long time no see. In the waning hours of 4/20, I loaded up my chevy and made a mad dash down to New Smyrna Beach, to pick up a specimen that's had one-too-many bad trips. Blazed and confused, it sad alongside Super-sports and flat-trackers owned by a nice gentleman of...

    Identify these Carburetors?

    These came as "spare" for the Suzuki GS850 I bought, but they don't actually fit. They're spaced wider out than stock. I'm looking to sell them or buy the correct carb holders to make them work for my bike but I don't know what they're actually for.

    Sold / Found / Inactive - ~82ish XS650 Carburetors

    Aftermarket/original Whatever you've got. The dirt and grime got to mine and I'm throwing in the towel, I know nothing about rebuilding these things and I feel the expense wouldn't be worth it for a bike that originally cost me $150.

    Paint

    Hey gang, since I'm stuck at home for the majority of the day now, was wondering about painting! My tank looks like garbage, and the aluminum will never polish up, I've got an airbrush, a compressor, and an enclosed space. What I don't have is a clue! What paint sticks to engines well? I'm...
