Feels like a new bike again!

[PhilB]

It's been running just a bit off for a while now -- a little rough, a little low on power, a little noisy, a little worse gas mileage. Nothing terrible, but just not quite right.

I upgraded to Dynacoils (finally), got new valve guide seals (they last about 50-60K), cleaned the carburetors, and tightened up the exhaust flanges (some leaking was happening there).

And there it is. Just needed a bit of care, and it feels tight and fast, runs like it was a new bike again. Good for the next 100K.

That's sweet you got it running like a champ!!
And yes a bit of love and it will love you back


P.S. I might be getting a 2000 Monster 750 just need to think twice before I make the move ;)

That's a good solid all-around bike, if it hasn't been neglected or abused too much. Find out when was the last time the cambelts were changed. If he says "what?", run away.
