I tore my o-ring gasket when cleaning the float bowl and it took me 2 weeks to get one from the dealer (~$6). You probably won't need the kit unless your jets are dirty.

yeah it seems to be collecting gas resedue on the gasket shes hard to start but once she starts shes good until she gets cold again then you have to turn her over a couple times to get her going plus i checked my plug yesturday and she was burning a bit lean could that contribute to it im running stock pipe stock jets just a filter thx for the reply
