You buy your own bus, and do what you want to your bus. I'll do what I want to so with mine. Pissing off purists one modification at at time.

Started new engine #2.
No fuses blew that I know of, and didn't see any smoke from my wire repairs.
I don't think it was knocking either.

Had almost a great 4 days. I rode 300 miles in 4 days. My problem-- every time I come to a stop or shift gears the bike stalls. Restart and the bike runs good until the next time. Adjusted the carb a bunch of times, did no good. Ran it almost try. refueled 3 times. Still no good. I don't know what else it could be.
Anybody have any good ideas, other then setting it on fire.  =whiteflag

Do you have a wire going to a large selinoid on the left side of your carb??

   Sounds like a clogged idle circuit. But it's been so long since I took a stock carburetor apart I forgot if they have a separate jet.
