  1. please help me troubleshoot my carbs.  bike will not idle with idle screws all the way IN.  I have played with the air screws and bike runs best with them screwed all the way out/removed.  Oil fouling plugs and bogging at low rpm/idle, but runs great at mid/WOT.  I have pulled carbs cleaned and rebuilt trying to find the issue with no luck.  Whats my next step? 

     

    Stock carbs

    recently rebuilt

    290 mains/stock pilots

    4250 elevation

    26:1 premix yamalube r

    stock airbox w/o lid

    proflow filter

    vforce 3 reeds

    stock bore/stroke

    stock top end

    fmf gold exhaust

    br8es plugs

     

  2. need some veterans to condemn my strator!!

     

    I was attempting to mod my stock timing plate to an adjustable one.

     

    pulled the cover and found that the rubber gasket must have been leaking. Flywheel rusted to @#$%, Strator looks like it belongs in a cave it has so much oxidation on the copper, ( Bike was running decent prior to mod). Had lots of trouble breaking the bolts because the rust had ate away at all the heads of the bolts. sprayed a very small amount of CLR on the strator and let soak overnight. Next day strator was looking recognizable with a large puddle of white glump underneath.

     

    reassembled....bike would not kick over. pulled plug to check for spark...no spark! Check continuity on yellow and black leads from strator with 0 resistance. checked continuity from red and green wires from strator...had 0 resistance.

     

    i hate to spend $200 dollars on a part that was not in my budget for my build......just looking for someone to verify what i already know....Do i need a new strator???

  3. bike won't idle at cold start in any temp weather, idles very low rpm once warm. Feels like i need to screw in the idler screws just a half a turn more would solve the problem. any ideas?

     

     

    98 shee, stock bottom and top end, stock carbs/tors removed, 290 mains, 30 pilot, idle screws screwed all the way in tight, vf2 reeds, k&n filter, fmf gold pipes with powercore silencers, stock timing. elevation for eastern NM 4266ft

  4. Size 46...basically an XL, Silver and Black Leather, vented Teknic violator Sliders Jacket like new...Worn maybe 5 rides. See youtube link for complete review of the jacket. This jacket was voted jacket of the year in 2009. A must have for serious sportbike riders.

     

    Asking 115 shipped to your door. Will text pics if you are interested.

     

     

     

     

    Willing to consider trades for equal performace banshee parts....would like a set of PWK carbs....sand paddles....good condition plastics.....

  5. mods include Fmf gold series fatty's, K&N , tors delete, Ive been told its jetted but have not torn into the carbs yet. I have pulled the plugs and the bike is running a little rich....makes me think the carbs are jetted to big. Also one side of the throttle cable is broken down near the carb where you can make adjustments to the tension. This could also be adding to the problem because that carb is thrown out of sync just a little.
