Just broken should not be having any real issues with the clutch yet. Of course do you know the bikes history?

Don't know maintenance history, or how it was ridden. Have done 10-40k maintenance according to FSM just to make sure, as I am interested in reliability over performance. I ride her pretty easy, as my go-fast days are back down the road a ways. Got the EFI straightened out, I like an original bike. Not real happy with mpg, 35 or so @ 60-65. Maybe a carb sometime later. Those conversions are damn expensive.

Most who enjoy best fuel efficiency. Are only getting between 25-50 mi max per tank
It eill eventually pay for it self. But if it was me, I’d leave it as is

I like the EFI, Splat. Smooth throttle response. Would only consider carb if MM completely died. I find the fuel system a challenge and relatively easy to work on(with a little help from my forum friends.)

I started using the Lucas fuel injector additive very recently. And milage and performance improved dramatically
Just an ounce at every fill. Done at least five times in the last few weeks.
Not tiding as much due to heath. And this like other products does a great job at treating the fuel. But this really cleans up the jets up nice.
A difference you can feel and see from the odometer. Which has not show 195mi of reserve
has been showing 165 for ever. And yes, I have a tank lift, so the front point up higher.
Should be saying 245 LOL
TRY IT

Will try it. Always looking for things to treat her better.
Thanks. Ken.
