I finally yanked it and surveyed the damage from last year's fire.

The box is cooked.
Other damage is the drain/vent tubes and the crankcase vent hose.
#4 carb slide is stuck. Not sure if that's actual fire damage or the extinguisher powder.
Electrics seem to be pretty undamaged. The bike cranks over fine.
I have seen a couple of really nice FJs for sale and I'd really like to get a new one. I'm thinking of selling this one as project material to put the money toward a new one. What do you guys think it might be worth? And would having it run and drive be a major factor in price? I replaced the clutch line already, so with a new box and carb clean I think it will be a runner.
Popped the lid on the carb with the stuck slide.
Thought I was going to find a melted diaphragm. Nope. Looks like it's just the fire suppressant powder making everything stuck. A good cleaning oughta take care of it.
