  1. Good day all! Just picked up the Virago and was just looking to see if anyone had any input before I started tearing it apart. Here's the quick story; Floods BAD on startup attempt. When it occasionally fires up, I have to hold the throttle wide open and it'll shoot fuel out of the exhaust. It was improperly stored without stabilizing fuel in the tank and I think the carbs will need to be torn apart and cleaned thouroughly to remove varnish and/or gunk to regulate fuel flow properly. Anyone think that that is the best place to start? Any other ideas? It's been great riding weather here in Nova Scotia. I hope you are all enjoying the same.
  2. Greetings from Canada's East coast. I'm just joining and I'm in sunny Halifax... okay, sunny for a couple of days anyway. Just took possesion of the family's 1978 DT125E with 8000 km. and thought it might be a good idea to get on the website here. Sounds like lots of folks who know tons of stuff. I hope your build goes well.
