Reserve Tank
After going onto reserve, my bike is really difficult to start, any ideas why?

Re: Reserve Tank
Fuel taps mostly have uneven length plastic tube like strainers that protruded up into the tank.
The short one is for reserve.
Perhaps it is partially blocked?

I WOULD RATHER WEAR OUT THAN RUST

Re: Reserve Tank
If you run it until it stops with the tap pointed to "ON" then you'll need to turn it to prime for a short while before moving onto reserve so that the float bowls in the carbs can be refilled. Sorry if you know this already though!
