When I drove gravel truck, I scaled it pretty regularly, as the weigh homies tended to target them. With the fuel truck? It's whatever I feel like hauling at the moment. They can't see in my tank, and I have airbags that hold it at a constant level so's it don't squat! I'm a bad widdow boy.

Floats on a Rappy are a pain in the azz, trying to get the fuel level using the tube method exactly where I want it is near impossible. I want it level or 1/8th" above the mating surface, closest I can get is 3/16th" above, those tangs are extemely touchy, but I have devised a system where the tank and carbs are set up on my workbench, both setting upright at the proper angle, works really sweet. I guess as long as the bowls aren't emptying out at WOT, or bogging down uphill, they're alright.

Hmmmmm, I've never had a carb float problem with any of my Hondas Larry! I think it's time you moved to the red side.

 

Well it started out with Bing, bless his heart, adjusting the floats for hill climbing, but for WOT, they were emptying too fast, remember, when you and I adjusted them, the float level was too high, just trying to get a decent medium.

I rode red all my life, 1970 CL70, 1971 CL350, 1966 305 Scrambler, 1984 VFR 750. I will say this Rappy does keep me busy, now I need to find a new clutch perch, disassembled the stock one, got rid of all the junk. Getting ready for Sandlake, new sprockets, chain, JTM extension 4.5" [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Is that a bolt on extension? I have heard real bad things with those. They come loose and can bend also.
