Quick tip.
It says in every manual ever written to drain the float bowls after riding in the rain. The old girl has been running a bit off under load ever since I rode home in a tropical monsoon last week so after 36 years of riding bikes I drained some float bowls and presto, out came a few droplets of water from No1 and No4. Why have I never done this on a road bike before :swoon: , did it to the race bikes before every race to clear condensation that forms during cool down, why I did not assume road bikes need it to :read: Next time I'm walking past with a 10mm I'll empty the can to :salute:
