 +====== Float Bowl ======
 +There is a brass baffle in the DC-7 float bowl on the left in the pic below. The DC-12 (right) does not have one. \\
 +The baffle helps arrest an rare-ish annoying Linkert trait. \\
 +
 +If your moving at high speed and you grab all the binders you can in order set up for a tight corner; ((Dr Dick of the XLFORUM http://​xlforum.net/​forums/​showthread.php?​t=1762899)) \\
 +The fuel sloshes to the front of the bowl opposite of the bowl vent tube. \\
 +As you stand the bike back up and peg the throttle (wot), the fuel now sloshes over to the opposite end of the float chamber. \\
 +(where it enters the top of the vent tube and exits the carb (spraying the rider, you will smell it). \\
 +In extreme cases, if your hanging off the right side of bike, you can get a face full of hi-test. \\
