Those Pingles are pricey, it seems to me they are mainly for 900 cc & up, I'm having fuel tap problems, on my 750, I have a cheap $15 knock off that ain't working, I'm fiddlin' with it now......................................................................................

The only thing better than the sound of a carburettor opening is the sound of 4 carburettors opening simultaneously!

I need to find the little handle now. I hope I didn't just toss it...
I've drilled and glued new pins in and they work fine. I use a piece of coat hanger for the pins.us

I have both a stock and a pingle and let me tell you the Pingle is pricey but it is also a world of difference. To me worth the money. On the tank shown it will twist right up but on the tanks that have the elongated hole and two screws you need the adapter plate. I'll never mess with another stock one and when the 650's craps out a Pingle will replace it. (I might have to save up for a while:woohoo: )

So ya think spending the dough for a Pingle might be well worth it, if I'm putting it in a 750 that's starving for gas? just adjust it down if it's delivering too much?

Sorry, I don't get the delivering too much gas and adjust it down. It doesn't matter how much gas flow there is unless it's too little. The floats in your bowls are only gonna let as much fuel in as the carbs needs. More fuel flow from the petcock is not a bad thing and how would you adjust it anyway?:huh:
