    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

So I've been a member of the forum since the beginning of 2012 but have had a series of problems throughout the year. Things have started to get better. For those of you who remember my son was going to a very difficult time with lung problems since he was only a few months old. Things are doing much better and he is healthy and strong after some really hard months of medication.

So now is time to finally get started with the bike. I am going to rebuild the carbs but I mentioned last time that I broke one of the float post in one of the end carburetors. I tried JB welding it and it seems to hold up strong. But I want your recommendation. I bought a set of carbs from a motorcycle junk yard about 3 months ago. And to my surprise, the same carb body has both post broken, so that didn't work. Any Ideas? My diaphragms have been out of the carbs since last year. Is that going to be a problem? do I need new diaphragms too?

Thanks in advance
 
Best of luck to your son on his recovery

on the carb, some members have had luck with JB weld, and a few have welded the post

I'd post up what carb you want in the Parts Wanted section and/or PM chef1366 - he usually has some extra CV carb bodies
