thank you sir... will give it a goSounds like the plates dragging slightly. Maybe just wind the adjuster out a bit at the clutch lever?

Hey Mr. LAKE, the terminal cover looks pretty bad. I searched the world over for one, then realized that spark plug and/or distributor wire caps also work well. And they're good for thousands of volts. FYI.View attachment 163096

Here you go!When cleaning up the garage around my project, I found used carburetor needles in a box. Can anyone of you assign them to the respective carburetors?
Yeah I sometimes need to give it just a little blip or 2Yes, they say applying throttle negates the choke function, but I find I always need to as soon as the motor catches to get it and keep it running. Usually this consists of just several quick, small blips to coax the motor into running at a higher idle with the choke on.
I normally don't bother with no iggy kicks on e-start bikes. and it's a been sitting a long time thing. Say a couple days or more, WJL hadn't run since November.Gary does kicking it over a few time no ignition help with a cold start ?
Also I had a Yamaha mechanic who said "when you put the choke on not to mess with the throttle" or it kicks out the choke or something like that?
Did he know what he was talking about
Ordered some bigger, multi adjustable pegs. They’re a little more modern looking, I hope they won’t look out of place, but they’ll sure be comfy. I’ve had my eye on them for months.
