I have the carb block of a 93 Nighthawk that I pulled off a couple of months ago because I was going to tear it apart, clean the carbs and rebuild the thing...
Darn block was sitting in my office for a few weeks, traveling in my car everywhere with me for a couple more, went back to the office (we have a lab with a bunch of tools I thought I could use), back to the car and now it's been sitting in my garage at home for... a while.
I SO have to get to it but what originally discouraged me was that I stripped a couple of screws, ran to get a tapping set and got out most of them, but two screws ended up with pieces of taps in them, still pretty much attached to the block -thankyouverymuch. :doh:
I know it's not going to be a big deal once I finally sit down and do it but it's just gotten to the point where I am just *dreading* it. :cry:
This weekend... I am sure... well... we'll see... lol
Of course, after I am done with that, the question will be whether after all this time I actually remember how to put them back and attach everything else, but I guess I'll solve that issue when I get to it :scared:
(I did take some pictures of some things that I took apart and thought 'uh-oh, looks complicated...' :lol: )
Ah... the joy of working on an old(er) bike... :p
