My bike is a california model with two hoses connected to the tank. I broke my subframe and didn't relize it until these hoses were pinched and the bike started cutting out at speed. You might take the seat off and take a real good look around. good luck. Metalmanic

Does anyone still make the block off plate for the fuel supply valve so it can be converted to a pure gravity feed?

I believe if you were to replace the diaphragm with a flat gasket, then you would defeat the auto shut-off feature.  Or you could remove just the o-ring from the diaphragm.  I believe in keeping this auto shut-off feature working as I have seen lots of stuck floats creating a potential hazard by leaking fuel all over the floor and/or filling the crankcase with gasoline.  YMMV Fred http://www.arrowheadmotorsports.com     [b]From:[/b] klrsisfiddy@...

Anybody sent their Corbin off to be recovered and what did they charge? Mine needs a recover but a local seat cover-er didn't want to do it. Criswell
