This forum is not like others
I just wanted to thank Fredsmoot23 for helping me. It has been a long journey since Jan when I bought this bike. I will NEVER buy a bike again without looking inside the tank with a flashlight and mirror.
After fixing the tank with Evaporust, I took off the old rusty carbs. I couldn't get the bolts off of the bowls. Fred picked up my carbs from my work. Super nice gesture considering we had never met before.
The carbs looked like an underwater ocean find, sort of like my tank did before I reconditioned it. I don't know how I ever got 200 miles (10 miles at a time only is how), with these bad carbs.
Fred suggested I grab a set of non-rusty, 'like new' 900ss 1995 carbs from Wounded Duc. They arrived in 2 days. Today he rebuilt them for me with 2 sets of 750ss carb kits off of ebay (thanks casor).
Ive never been a part of such a great forum as this one. Fred found me on here and reached out to me after reading about my tank/carb issues. We live in the same area (pretty close too).
Thank you Ducati MS, Fredsmoot23, Wounded Duc and all the members on here that have helped me!!!
Now I am nearly 'banned' from riding my bike until he helps me change my belts!
Wow...thanks again Ducati ms.
