Its funny how they start work on my bike once I have thiers. They called me to let me know that my petcock was also leaking. funny how that works huh?I feel you pain. I bought my '94 new and had a couple of different dealers do service on it. Pretty much screwed it up so decided it was time to do my own service work. Valve adjustments, change plugs and oil changes. Also a bunch of updates also.

It may take some time but with the help on this forum you can have a great running C10.
Good Luck!
William, Mettler1 just told you every thing you need to know to keep your Connie out of harms way, and didn't cost you a thing.
But he let me work on it while we drank beer.....

Beer makes Connies run better, right?
yeah, too much beer makes rods floppy and flexible, so they can't be bent permanently.
you guys have managed to make me smile despite all this crap with this mechanic. Thank you.That is a quick little bike. A C10 is like a tank compared to that 800. Not only does that engine have way more horsepower and torque , it weighs almost half of what the C10 weighs. I think it comes in under 400 lbs.
this is the bike they finally loaned me. While I wait and wait for them to finish my bike.
BMW f800R
I want my Sparrow back! This bike feels like a 10-speed compared to my concours
William,
Is that your carbs I see resting on top where the seat normally is?
