klr650 fuel starvation and/or surging problems

[s2mumford]

I have just spent 1/2 hour on the phone with a potential lister, he sent me an email to my aol address. Seems like a nice guy, asked all the usual newbie questions. I don't mind being an ambassador for the KLR group, but it seems to me that the new / potential owner is being deprived of the best source for information on the KLR 650. If you're not up to open membership, at least e-mail this guy and give him access to the vast ocean of KLR wisdom. Speaking for myself, I get spam all the time anyway, and I personally don't care for the "closed list" mentality. Does anyone else on the list mind if it's opened back up to new members? I would like to know what the rest of the regulars think. Thank You Stuart Mumford PS I attach a copy of his email below. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In a message dated 06/19/02 12:40:24 PM Pacific Daylight Time, debi@... writes: Hi, my name is Jeff.

I concur with Stu. I feel the closed list is a BAD idea. Please reopen the list to new members. Scott Bower Redondo Beach, CA A15 http://www.socal-dualsport.com

As do I, and I have mentioned this repeatedly. So I am mentioning it again.

I agree, and further, feel that closing the list to new subscribers kills the sense of community that I - we - have enjoyed here. Wise men still seek Him...

Not only do I think we should keep the list closed, I beleive we should start culling the herd. Too many freaks around these parts for my liking... dat brooklyn bum p.s. Jes joshin' -- let all the freaks in...I mean how can we pick on the new guys if there aren't any? "Everywhere there's freaks and hairies Dykes and fairies Tell me where's my sanity"

The onslaught of Spam is never going to end. To close off new members, potential new friends, and lots of enthusiasts to dodge the same messages we are going to get regardless just doesn't make much sense. I vote re-open!

Ditto, I agree with Stu. Let new members in, we need another good sight glass / best oil debate :> --- Scott Bower wrote:

But if we're letting new members in wouldn't that make it possible for present members to escape ? I'm gonna need more time to think abut this.......cosmo

I also, would like to see the list open to new members. If nothing else, at least to people that are being referred by a current member. Kathleen Lake Elsinore, CA. KLR A13 TDM '92 CB400A '78 [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
