  5. perhaps there is a cap concealing the bolt...either that or they just pushed in?
  6. first thought is the fuel enrichment cct (choke) not working, not familiar with the bike , perhaps there's a fuel lift tube in the float bowl? perhaps theres a small orifice at the bottom of the tube, perhaps the small orifice is blocked, perhaps the crank seals are failing..all guess work really
  7. cant imagine what the hole is for I have never seen one, it wont be for a fuel tap though will it...as the tap is way out front under the tank? the forum has a search box, you should see lots of threads asking about decals, such as https://yamahaclub.com/forums/search/?type=all&q=where+can+i+buy+decals

  16. y'know those bodily fluids you mentioned Foams, how can you be sure they were all your own...maybe you slept through something there...maybe the Gym monsters came upon you...in the gutter like
  17. maybe a blocked idle jet? better still maybe a blob of water in the carb...is there a drain plug/screw on the carb bowl?
  18. Airhead

  19. you can put any oil designed for 4 stroke (motorcycle) engines or oil designed for 2 stroke transmissions, 10w40 will do
