I have fuel pressure again.

My replacement fuel filter has a crimped gasket and is spitting fuel everywhere.

This is my life.

clip off those crimped connectors.
Plain old worm-gear clamps work fine.
That filter has to go anyways from what you're describing.
Make sure that the replacement is the newer large steel kind. It has to support the fuel rail pressure.

You're very close to having a runner!

It is the /new/ filter that has the bas O-ring. It's a k&n replacement. :-/

So K&N fuel filter installed (really a Golan fuel filter, K&N just resold it), Puralotor PureONE oil filter and fresh oil in.

I believe my clutch cable is either maladjusted or bad. I can adjust this near the fork right? I couldn't tell by reading the book if I should be adjusting it by the fork or taking off the cover on the left side and adjusting it there. I'm sure it needs new transmission fluid tho so I'm not again just getting a new cable and flushing the fluid.

The bike now idles with no problem, although there's definitely some tapping noises although I haven't isolated where at.
