petcock screen? WHERE??
11/30/09 at 22:12:05

i removed the petcock from the tank, this big orange thing is sticking up out of it.

then i took off the 4 little screws to look inside....where the heck is this screen i'm supposed 2 clean??????

and i am tryin to put a new spark plug in, it says .08 or .09 but the one i pulled out is like a .04 and when i gap the new one to .08 it looks too far away and @ an angle.....what the heck lol

'95 bobber rat...i guess it's a "bat bike" haha flat black mostly, bare metal tank, header wrap, always a work in progress !

hahhahahahahaahaha thank God, cuz the square part took some coercing to get open and i envisioned the friggin screen flyin off into the night!

so how do i clean it? lol

and dude, i hit reserve on the way home so i was like "sweet there shouldn't be much 2 drain".....waaaay wrong lol

so not i'm debating what to do with the head covers and the battery box....both are chrome....but i don't want to bake them(who is gonna let me bake bike parts?) LOL!! so if i can paint them without using the easy bake oven...that would be good lol
