Still waiting on my carb rebuild kit. Hope that stock pilot jet fixes my issue.
In the meantime, I pulled apart the forks and steering head. The fork are like new... so I only opened up the caps and drained and replaced the fluid. Looked like clean regular oil in them. Both had same amount... good... I replaced with same amount too.
The steering head was sadly not roller bearings. Just the standard, cheap, cage-less ball bearings (20 of em) top and bottom. The steering was oddly stiff to the left and notchy to start. That was because of 2 broken ball bearings in the bottom. I swapped top for bottom ball bearing and added two new ones to the top. All lubed up and smooth steering now.
Not much else to do now... but fix the carb... get it running right and off I go. Can't wait!
Cheers!
