    I have yet to have a TCI go all at once until it wouldn't fire at all. Usually they just start dropping a cylinder at a time.

    It working but water doesn't do much. Now for cleaning solutions. You can use White Vinegar, Dish soap, baking soda, Simple Green and a bunch of others. Small amounts!! trying to find degreaser and something that will break down crud in carbs.

    You just have to own both and see what a pain those MKll bags are. Not that much more room. Give me the MKl anytime.

    I do a lot of things that could have ill effects. Running a 1st Gen at 115 MPH with only a front brake trying to catch a 2nd gen that snuck up on me. But I can't blame it on the carbs!! TCI on that piece of junk maybe....

    Put mine in a show one time and got "It ain't a Hardley" Asked him if he wanted to run that Hardley title for title. No takers.

  21. Yammer Dan
    Oooopps!! Almost a entire 2nd Gen on there right now. Good time to grab those parts that have fallen off while trying to catch the 1st Gens.....

    If you go with the washers take one with you to Home depot or wherever to see what you need.

    You can not tighten the valve cover bolts. They are shoulder bolts and only tighten so far. They are probally as tight as they are going to go. you can check these and make sure they are bottomed out but do not overtourqe them as you can break them and then you are really in trouble. Another cure is to remove the bolts and add a thin washer to help them them snug the gasket up. I did this and no more leaks. You need to do all 16 bolts. There is thread here showing how to do this with paper but I used thin metal washers. Takes a little work but saves buying gaskets. The washers I found would not fit all the way up on to the shoulder bolt and I had to take a round file and enlarge the hole in the washers to make them fit. Home Depot sells fiber washers that would probally do a better job. They are a lot more costly but I will check them next time as I think they will work without having to cut. Not a hard job if you understand what I'm trying to say. The washers need to go pass the shoulder on the bolts.

    Yamaha had such a great idea with the removable luggage. Made working on the bike and cleaning it so much easier. Changing it one of the biggest goofs they have made.
