So this isn't a problem, I guess, just a gripe/question.  we've got this vacuum operated fuel valve, right?  Does that explain why, once she needs to go on reserve, rather than sputtering for a few seconds (or a minute) like most other bikes--thereby giving you a chance to reach down and switch to reserve--my Drifter engine just always dies.  Then I hurry to get out of traffic (Murphy's law--that's where you'll be), switch the thing to reserve, then crank her for 10-15 seconds to get running again.  Sorry to vent, but is that everyone's experience with the vacuum petcock or just mine?
