Two days of fixing, mixed outcomes:

 

Action - result


--------------------

Renewed speedometer cable - almost
steady needle, a slight vibe at certain speeds (success-)


 

Renewed clutch cable - smoother & easier operation (success+)


Replaced cracked float bowl (Thanks, Studley !), adjusted fuel levels, synchronized - seemed nice after test drive, but upon arrival at today's commute it skipped and stuttered on idle....(failure) Confusedorry:
 


Adjusted chain (success)


Washed (success)


 

Confusedorry:  Tongue - can't decide....

Went for a short ride on a curvy road, overpassed two HD, was overpassed by a sportbike but when I saw him coming in the mirror, started to do things with the left hand to make him believe I was not pushing hard...

Readjusted float valves, synchronized carbs (used old jets from carbs to smoothen gauge fluctuations - worked a treat !).

Now running better than in years  :pimp:

I must say, though, that the procedure for measuring fuel level is quite tiresome - esp. when adjustment is a precision guesswork....
