Damn, I'd love to get my hands on one of those. After having the maxim, i'm
sold on the motor. Plus that bike has upgraded suspension and a turbo.

Im on an 83 550 NH. i was riding along and all of a sudden i noticed when i
rolled on the throttle nothing happened. I recently read that there's a power

You should have two tubes from the petcock. The larger One is the gas line,
going to the carbs. The smaller one is your vacuum line going to the carb boot
or joint between the carbs and the engine.

There should be a hose or two hanging down between the carbs, those are
vents for the back side of the CV diaphragms. There's a thinner vacuum line
from the carb boot to the fuel valve to keep it open.

If you are already on reserve and the gas and vacuum lines are properly
connected, the you may have sucked junk into the petcock and or carbs. The
bottom of the tank usually has junk in the bottom and if you run the bike on
reserve long enough it will end up in your carbs.

Always reset the trip odometer. Start looking for gas at 100 miles. At 120
miles look harder! Run in the ON position and reserve when/if it quits and
REALLY look for gas!

Good advice, I get nervous as hell over 100 miles and always avoid reserve.

Right on as far as using the trip meter. I start looking at 90, and switch
to reserve at 100, this saves me from possibly having it start to sputter
at the wrong time.
