Mr paint got the maxi maroon tank redone from my fuel spill
last summer so I got it back on the resto mod, fired it up and took it for a spin. I used the "fat" #26 o-ring from the "fitz none" metric assortment in the red case to replace the skimpy tank to petcock seals. I have used fat o-rings on a bunch of tanks now, some have been on for 3-4 years, they work super. Install per the pics, turn screws to "just" grip the o-ring then push o-ring into the groove, finish tightening, a bit of silicone (lube, not caulk) to help the o-ring slide into place is a good practice. I always remove all the paint from the petcock seal area with a razor blade and sand the metal smooth. This is SOP on every petcock I remove.
Also in the pic; repair of a split brass petcock tube, split tubes are common; wrap the end with fine copper strand stripped from some automotive wire, clean the tube, flux and solder end and split, this repair is 3 years old now. don't let it get too "fat", the petcock slot in the tank bottom is narrow.
Good routing for euro bend handle bars with standard length cables; neat, only gentle bends and works
great. Note; the cable sides are reverse from the stock positions. Along with slightly straightening the elbow at the bottom this may be the cure to your "fussy clutch", mine is easy to pull and stays in adjustment hot and cold.
The prep for the Ozark rally continues.
