Been putting a friends VL Harley

back in running condition…Beautiful bike..The tanks and carb were full of crap..Like 1/2 a coffee can full of rust and water and goo…  The plugs were oil fouled…Because the check ball for the hand pump wasn’t seated… This let the cases fill with oil and empty the oil tank.  Too much oil in the crankcase leaks everywhere and fouls the spark plugs…..3 pumpfulls (4oz) is just the right amount…  Anyway, just got back from the roadtest… Now it runs like a raped ape and starts with 1-2 kicks……I love properly tuned motorcycles…..
