Filling the gap
14 Mar 2014 14:36
Just made the deal to buy this '82 GPz750 - 22,000 miles, needs carbs cleaned, and TLC - and when it's done it'll look really good posed between my '81 GPz550, and my '82 GPz1100.
My wife asked me if I still loved her - I said "Honey, I love you more than new carburetor boots ! "

Started working on her today -
The carb boots are slightly harder than granite, and lots of homemade hose clamps, and even a homemade E-Clip.
So I ordered new boots, new choke rod, new springs for the boots that were missing, and some new rubber dust seals for the enricher shaft. Next Saturday I should have combustion going.
