LOL Yah Ok!!!
as my Dad used to say "Dive in there...it'll all come out in the wash"
one way or another anyway !
I've almost got the carbs out now anyway.... once I do that I'll start pulling the valve cover off I noticed that the rubber on the top of the valve cover bolts
is cracked on several of them so maybe I should order those rubbers too.
I think they are a cone shaped rubber so it may not be critical if they are slightly dried and cracked on the outside edges ! none are leaking but if you pull them out they might so it might be better to replace them....
..... and I discovered the front fork on the left side is leaking ! ACK !!!!
that's not good at all !
although I rode many thousand miles on bikes with leaking fork seals it's not something I want to do on the Ninja ! she's a good bike and I want to keep her that way !
....
And the coolant is probably the original coolant from when the bike was sold
so changing it wouldn't be a bad idea anyway.....
....
so I am heading out to the shop to get those carbs off of there....
Later !
Bob....
