Carburetor mounting nut lost

China Rider 27 · 04-26-2020, 12:18 AM

Last weekend I was out about 8 miles riding my HAWK when it started developing hesitation while I was holding a steady half throttle. Not good so I high tailed for home and made it. Seemed to be acting like an ignition issue. So yesterday I went to take the plug out to look at it and I noticed the plug wire mounting grommet was loose and then I saw the right side carburetor nut was missing! One of the few things I had not used the lock tite on. The left side was none to tight either. I think I will put on some double nuts with the loc tie.
