Not the speed I expected.

He didn't mention having a chain or shaft. In the middle 2000's Honda starting shifting their 750 line to shafts and we all had to play catch up. Lynda looked at a real sweet Honda in 2007/2008 but discarded the idea when she saw the chain and choke lever. Suzuki 1 and Honda 0.

I got her up to 70 today, I don't know if it's the Seafoam working or if it was just that I had a little tailwind.

May be a little of both.She should cruise at 70 effortlessly,with plenty of reserve for passing.
:cool:

I did stop by the dealership as part of today's ride and mentioned that it only went to 60 and that I had Seafoam in the tank. One of the mechanics took her from the parking lot to the service bay (to adjust suspension up a notch) and he thought she lacked power when starting out from a stop. He said to run her for a while with the Seafoam and if it doesn't improve to bring her in for a look. They couldn't do any thing as they are remodeling and all the tools are put up for now, they should be done remodeling Friday.

I noticed something that looks like a fuel filter, I will have to look again, if it is I might get that changed and see what happens.

If you have a fuel filter that is partly plugged & slowing fuel flow,that would seriously limit your power,witch is quite possible after using the SeaFoam.Also it is that much more crud that did not get to the carb.A lot of the filters look similar to this one.

What I saw was all metal, like a car fuel filter. I will look again in the morning.

Well, either way, I was so oblivious to what was going on that I thought we were talking about a GZ.
So design changes or not, I was still way off

:lol: :lol: So that's what happened to my missing senior moment. You had it.

It is not a fuel filter, what I saw was the back side of the fuel selector.

Could you please explain why she won't hold 80 all day long? Or were you thinking I was talking about the GZ?
