Pulled it all apart today, found the washer but no nut, I got very lucky, the washer was wedged between gears and no broken teeth. Thats what I was hearing when I would turn over the engine. I will be having the crank welded this week and try to get her all back together this coming weekend.. IF I DONT FORGET HOW IT GOES BACK TOGETHER! LOL Thanks for all the help and suggestions from everyone!!! You all have been a great help!! Hope everyone had a good weekend!! Happy Holidays!!

I have taken off the 6 bolts and springs for the clutch basket and took out the plates and there is hardly anything left of them. But when I turn over the engine there is metal grinding in there somewhere. I took off the head and all looks good. Is it possible a bearing went out?

I should probably mention that my right cylinder was not as hot as my left cylinder, not sure if that would make that much of a difference. it was smoking just not as much as the left.

I drained the oil and i did not notice any metal shavings as i filtered the oil through a auto paint filter and nothing was on the drain bolt magnet. When I got the bike the woodruff key was missing and would not surprise me if the dumb-ass that had it didn't put it back on if he had it apart. I was just looking at the shee tight now and when I pull on the cable only the outside metal pice moves and the disks don't separate. Is this normal? Finch, you think the crank separated? I didn't have it welded and don't think the guy before me did either.

So I've been braking in the top end, first 3- 10min runs I was 1/4 throttle (complete cool down before each run) ran desent, next 2 runs I was at 1/2 throttle and ran better. Next 2 runs I was at 3/4 throttle and ran even better. Then the next 2 runs was I was full throttle and had great power!! Let it cool till the next day and took it out for a few hours, it ran okay messed with the carbs a bit and I still couldn't get it to idol I had to keep it running with the throttle. But while I was riding I noticed my clutch getting softer and softer until it wouldn't engage anymore. Tried every witch way to adjust the clutch cable and no luck. So I brought it home and took off the clutch cover to discover that the clutch adjustment screw in the middle of the basket was missing the washer and nut. (I never took off the clutch cover since I got the bike) what problems would this cause? Now it runs like crap and I can hear grinding in (i think the tranny). Any help would be with this would be much appreciated.

Oh and air/fuel screw I'm going to put it at 1-1/2 turns from all the way cloaed.

Hey everyone, Happy Thanksgiving!!!! So hers the low down on the bike so far: Dd a compression test and left side cylinder was at 168psi and the right side cylinder was at 170psi So here's the settings I think im going to go with: Breake in period, 91 pump gas with 32:1 klotz 300 main's 27.5 pilot Keep the stock needle setting Plugs gaped at 32 thousands. Does this sound like this should be good to start with? Any suggestions?

Well last night we did the leak down test, it lost a little more then 1/2 a pound in the 6 minuet test, so I thought the results were pretty good. I wasn't able to get my hands on the compression tester last weekend but am picking up one tomorrow, so I'll keep you guys updated. Thanks again for the help guys.

Lol thanks for the link bud.
-
This is kinda a dumb question, but what is the process of doing a leak down test? I'll be testing compression tomorrow evening.

Thanks for the input, I will do a compression test this weekend, also I live in Tucson, AZ its starting to cool down a bit here low 70's-mid 80's. I Have a uni foam filter, it came on the bike, no air box. Should I replace the filter for k&n? I have used k&n in the past and didn't have any troubles, don't have any exsprince with uni. Thanks again!!

Hi forum!! I'm new to the forum but been around shee's in the past. I just picked up an 04 shee and right off the bat started doing mods to it. I bought it bone stock except for Toomy pipes and aftermarket stator I'm assuming for the battery and hid lights. So here is what I have done to it in the last 3 weeks: Shaved head Wiseco 65.5 rebuild Billet Timing Plate +/- 4 board carbs Lightened Flywheel V-force Reeds 4 TORS Eliminate kit I still have the reeds, carbs and pipes to put on but after that im ready to roll. So b4 I put on the carbs what jets size jets should I use? Im at 1600ft. Also with what I have done, what would be the best fuel and oil and ratio should I run? Thanks for any input!!
