Easy to fix though just need a few new parts and a drill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bob Posted August 24, 2006 Report Share Posted August 24, 2006 Yeah, I imagine Barry would need to take it for crash test to make sure it could handle anything it was thrown at. Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the addict Posted August 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 (edited) my almost standard works lovely thanks... !! Exactly Heath, almost standard? why arnt they supplied like this in the first place? Rick, would nt bother asking mate, we'll never get hold of the proper bits for the Mikuni anyway. Did some work today on the carb thanks to Rod, pretty much sorted the lower end running during the past couple of months but the bike will not climb hills strongly, main reason for this is me shutting off due to the huge amount of pinking at mid plus throttle openinging on biggish climbs, pinks so bad never wanted to push the engine harder incase it did a full lean out. Tried for the first time today to absolutely nail the ****** in third and forth up big climbs and the bike is ballistic. Seems the problem is carburation at the point where the main takes over from the pilot and not as I thought too small a main jet. After about 10-12 full throttle runs did a plug chop and the plug was nice and clean, maybe a little weak but would expect that after continuos blasts and immediate shut off. Not 100% sure what to do about the big pinking but may lift the needle one notch and see how it goes and cross my fingers it does nt mess the lower throttle openings to much Edited August 27, 2006 by Betarev3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
