We then invested over $2350 into it; We installed an EMGO Viper Café Fairing that looks awesome. We installed a new Yuasa battery, completely rebuilt the fuel system and carbs and installed a new OEM carburetor gasket kit, a new OEM fuel cap gasket, new air cut valves, new accelerator pump and a new fuel line. Please see the detailed evaluation and service list below.
