Ahh. Yeah, my buddy's was rubbing on the chain. He had just bought the bike and hadn't done a full inspection yet. The previous owner swapped motors, but did a sloppy job, apparently.

im having a fuel flow issue at anything above 4500rpms. i have no issues around town but once i try and take it on a long ride at 65mph at about 5500rpm my fuel fitter is empty in about 5-10 miles then i have to stop and blow into the tank to get the fillter to fill up faster then just letting it flow without the pressure any ideas. i think it might be the petcock not flowing enough gas.

Is it a see-through filter with a paper element? From an auto parts store?
Typically, those have problems with fuel flow. They are menat to work with a fuel pump, not gravity.

If that's what you have, you should get a see-through, metal screen type, or a scintered brass/bronze type. Those are available through Z1 enterprises and Dennis Kirk. You want 5/16" inlet and outlet.
