[QUOTE="cleonard, post: 81407, member: 21"] One thing about old street bikes that is different than old dirt bikes is the metal tanks. Metal tanks that sit tend to rust. That rust makes it into the carb and can cause issues. I have a 1980 CM400 that had it pretty bad. I never got that bike to run right without a fuel filter. There is not much room for one though so I usually use one of the 90 degree sintered metal ones that I get from RockyMountain. I just add one to my order when I'm buying something else. I use the "large" version here [url]http://www.rockymountainatvmc.com/p/43/53/174/781/-/3769/Visu-Filter-In-Line-Fuel-Filter/FUEL+FILTER[/url] Not sure if the smaller "standard" has enough fuel flow.
