Opposed twins get junked every day. I wouldn't judge a forum of 17,000 over one persons choices.

Waitaminit!!!

Is THIS the thread? http://www.diygokarts.com/vb/showthread.php?t=20806

That's funny as hell. I bought that carb off him! As we speak, it's sitting on General Mayhem's intake manifold. Jammy was kind enough to throw in a full rebuild kit. Good guy. Seriously- hella good guy.

I seriously hate to think you abandoned ship because of THAT.

TOO sensitive- this is why the engine was scrapped/parted out- ".the crankcase is cracked around the drain plug, the valves look like sheet, the bores are rough and not even round, and one piston looks like it's been hot enough to get soft/squishy."

Ain't too many people out there that would or could have done differently.

I parted a genII twin. Seeya later! lol!

Good to know. I think I’ll go post in every old thread. OMG, what could be wrong with bringing an old thread to the surface? People learn from it... good. I always thought that is what forums are for. Plus, many searches don’t turn up what you are looking for. 
IMO, revive all you want.

I suppose you can add another ‘not on topic’ post to the list. 

I really don’t have much use for over moderation. 

Maybe I’ve overstayed my welcome.
