    Carb keeps leaking gas!

    Have a 71 Rupp Roadster and Hustler. Both have what I believe to be the correct slanted manifold. Both have new carbs. Both leak gas out of the choke. What am I missing?!

    1971 Rupp Hustler - same engine as 70 Roadster?

    Almost done with my 71 Rupp Roadster rebuild and am moving on to a 71 Rupp Hustler. Unfortunately, the engine shroud is missing, and the engine needs parts. It looks to be the same engine as the 71 Roadster - a Tecumseh HS40. I need quite a few parts. Can I assume the engines are the same?

    71 Rupp ??

Picked up the first bike yesterday, and the seller thought it was an early 70's Hustler, but the wheels don't match what i'm finding by way of pictures. Maybe a 71 Scrambler?
