Welcome to the site, first of all. Secondly, it might help if you describe the problem you're having to these guys. Some of them (myself excluded) are very technically inclined.


Good luck to ya!

well i wanted a start to finish on carb adjust /jetting etc
got it from the local shop and seems to be dialed in perfect
changed out pipe then got 145 main jet
cut large hole in airbox
ran test as follows
started bike
got timing to smoothe out after warm up
then ran air/fuel adjust in all the way then back out 2 1/2
didnt see any change at all in that adjustment
can turn that screw all day with no change
anyway
after that
i ran bike through all gears to top speed (about 70)
wow i was amazed
then let off gas and cut engine
pulled plug found it to be light brown on most of the tip and insulator except behind electrode (i dont think thats what its called ) anyway the curved thing that you adjust for gap
it was light gray leading to black
anyway this was what they say is the preferred color not black (rich) not white (lean) right

severe increase in hp and speed
pulls wheelies in all 6 gears to include while crusing not just when changing gears
little tap of the throttle (which i also change to a twist ) and up she goes sweeeeeeeeet

thanks for the help guys i will post some pis soon

had almost 1" or play that i could not adjust
