Jumping Speedo

Check the speedo cable; it might not be screwed in/fastened all the way at either the speedo connection, or where it goes into the front wheel. (2) You might be somehow getting gas onto your oil; gas in oil will produce a bunch of white smoke (black smoke usually means oil is burning, i.e getting pa...

Gas Tank cleaning

Just my 2 cents, but I've cleaned out all my bike's tanks with just kerosene and BB's - put about 2 pints of kero in the tank, dump in a goodly amount of BB's or slingshsot ammo and shake, rattle and roll for a while; drain out the kero, take out the BB's with a magnet, top off the tank with gas, in...
