Plan for Sunday, I will go.  Maybe a ride to Coopers or San Antonio or Austin.  Whatever.  Just plan something and we'll go.  A friend of mine is trailering his bikes in from out of state and wants to go riding all week.  So anything will be fine.

So what is up with your bike.

Not sure it, I ran out of gas a week or two ago (reserve did not work). Pushed to station, put gas in and drove home. It really hasn't wanted to start right after that. I got it to stay started once since then after an hour of trying drove around the block to test, since then it starts to start (without choke ) you hear one rumble of the pipes then shuts off immediately. When I go to restart it it sounds like it is flooded or something. I'll wait for an hour or 4 then try it again the same thing happens. When I try to start it with choke it doesn't even start to start. I added some sea foam nothing has changed.

Well, definitely sounds like a carburetor issue. If you want a hand with it, let us know, we will help.

Were your problems happening before you ran out of gas or after?  If after, it could be a tank of bad gas!  As for the reserve not working, did you have the lever in the correct position to begin with?  I've had that happen before where I forgot to put the lever back to "on" and I ran into the reserve before switching to reserve.

I think David may be right about it being a carb issue crosssing my fingers that it is just a little debris somewhere.Hopefully we'll know later today. As for it doing this prior it hadn't but it hasn't exactly sounded perfect lately either, kind of like it needed a little tweaking somewhere.

I did have the petcock in the correct position both when the  bike ran out of gas and then when I was trying to start it. Gabe said Angie's 750 ran out once and it took about 15 minutes to get it going, he moved the bike around and stuff. I gave up after a few trys and pushed to the gas station that I knew was around the corner. The bike ran out at 99 I usually get 115 but with the new pumps I don't always get a full tank. I have been wanting to invent some sort of attachement to put on the inside of the tank that would pull out and give me that extra 2 inches to get a full tank. After running out I found this on the internet  http://www.mccuff.com/ but don't really want to have to carry it around and not sure if you can actually see in the tank. I still think there is someway to put something in the rim of the tank.
