I removed the stub of the fuel petcock a PO had kindly left me when he cut it off for no good reason and test fit the 3/8 threaded bung I bought to repair it. Now I just need to get it TIG or brazed in.

Nah, that's just a practical seat mod to accommodate his massive balls........... ;D

I went to Berchtesgaden in 1974, what a beautiful place! Only problem with not speaking the lingo was we never knew what we were buying by just looking at the label, so when we saw "Limburger" Cheese in a local store, we vaguely remembered it, so bought a sealed slab of the stuff and some crackers, for lunch.

When my ma opened the pack, I thought she'd dropped her guts, man, what a stink! My dad promptly dumped it in a bin and an old local guy took it out and looked insulted, and walked off with it. Oh well, the crackers were ok I guess........... ;D

That's the interesting thing.  My dad said he would never go because of that schmutzig who had it built but we met there guy from Israel, go figure.
I am born Czech and American by immigration, but my wife (American) wanted to see it.  She also dragged me all over Salzburg because of The Sound of Music, LOL!

Gotta say that place, Berchtesgaden,  is insane and megalomaniac, just the road to the elevator is creepy.

I love limburger, we have much bigger variety of soft cheese over there, it goes well with beer.

Put my bike on the sidestand to get going this morning, and then discovered carb bowl 1 was leaking like a sieve! I had taken the bowl off to check my jet sizes the other day (on another note I need to order new jets! 7A carbs should have 120s, not 110s! Silly PO.), and I must not have seated the gasket correctly so the bowl was overflowing around the gasket and keeping the float down.

Fuel off. Bowl off. Double checked float valve operation, all OK. Dried off the gasket, soaked it in spit (nature's temporary Permatex) to hold it in upside down. Bowl back on. NO LEAK!

Zoom off to work!
