Hey Steph!


I'm still scratching my head on who the hell worked on your bike!
It's totally amazing, how it appears that a chimpanzee had his hands on it.
I'm gonna machine that carb part up that's missing, the diaphragm may survive, and I arranged the airfilter assembly, so it won't come apart. As for who designed that airbox. and the hoops you gotta go thru to put it all back together, just floors me, but it seems every Kawasaki is built the same way...If you gotta get at the carbs, you gotta take the rear fender off!

BTW, we should change the oil and filter cartridge, considering how much fuel that engine has ingested by now. Maybe you can take a ride to the stealership for a filter cartridge, and 2 quarts of oil....1.9 liters.
will keep you up to date on what going down, but it maybe running by tomorrow (Monday) nite....

I think I'm gonna start to charge double for kawasaki work!

Hey Steph!


Mark is the man when it comes to helping out the fellow rider....

Hope he knows how much work he'll have to do all over again for me when I pick up another TL this winter

I got reports that you were tearing up the backroads last night huh?
One more thing ya gotta do is to pick up some fresh plugs for that bad boy...we can swap them out pretty quickly, you get that tank sorted, and I think you are ready to go.
