FYI I found a new coil from http://www.classiccycleparts.com/ I haven't put it on yet but it looks like it will work.

Thanks. I double checked to see where it was coming from and it is not the petcock or the crossover fitting. I will probably try some two part epoxy or JB Weld on the outside, and try drizzling some of the KREEM sealer into that corner. If that fails, I will break down and bring it to a welder, who ...

Exhaust Pipe Temperature

My exhaust on the 305 Dream (1965) is only warm to the touch at the end the pipe after running the bike for a while. Is this typical or should I check to make sure they are not clogged??
