Hi all-I've been away from the form for about 8 years, anyway I let my Hi set to long without starting, I gave 1 of my H1s to my son with a fortune with extra parts, anyway I think Ja-Moo showed how to make a float gage I got my carbs apart and all cleaned up and I got 3 Sudco rebuild kits, Does anybody know how to make that float gage, as I remember I made one out of gaslit material thanks Dennis

I think this is what you're looking for:

Be aware that if you use those Sudco kits you will probably never get the bike to run right. :thumbdown:
The jets & needles will cause problems.

Yes, reuse your needles and jet, or get new genuine Mikuni jets.

Pretty sure H1 & H2 are the same.
