After new brakes in the front, fork seals, digital sync of the carbs, and many hours of cleaning and detailing, the bike is on the road. I have put on 1200 miles and other than a small fuel leak from the petcock it has been awesome.

Very nice looking scooter, BTW if your petcock is leaking at the knob it can't be fixed, not even with the rebuild kit. Just thought i'd let you know before buying a kit.
I can tell you what to check later if it's not comming from behind the selector knob.

It is leaking from behind the selector knob, what is the best solution? Thanks in advance for your help. |
