[QUOTE="Lovespeed, post: 196973, member: 3063"] Alright I've spent the past few days working hard on getting the paint off the plastics. I took all of them off and used paint remover on it then hosed it off. It took most of the paint off but there was still lots of spots left on each of them so now I've been putting paint remover and scrubbing each piece individually. I'm done with the front fender completely and a bunch are almost done. Also I bought a new master link for the chain since it didn't have one, new spark plug, new clutch lever (the old one is snapped), and finally a new OEM fuel screw set because the carburetor didn't have one! I also soaked the carburetor in carb cleaner for 24 hours too clean everything real good so there will be no issues with that. I also just ordered new UFO radiator shroud plastics since the bike didn't have any. I'll keep you updated with progress. Also quick question, is the Mikuni carburetor the one that the bike came with stock? I want to be sure I bought the right fuel screw. Also what affect does not having a fuel screw do? Will it not crank without it? [/QUOTE]
