   Anyone else had a problem with poor gas tank venting?  Took the bike on a long high speed ride and it started to starve for fuel, thought I was low on gas or pump had failed. Stopped at Gas Station and when I opened the tank it was until pressure. I filled up and rode the rest of the day with the gas cap open and  no problems.  I see the vent but haven't had time to blow it or check. I think I will also add another vent to make sure this doesn't happen again.

no experience on the CB1, but usually it's just a little strip-and-clean job for many more happy miles Smiley

MosT common is the rubber hose perishing or getting kinked. Otherwise run a long thin piece of wire down the vent thru the tank and see what comes out! If not much then comp air might help too, did in my triumph.
