[hole shot bog problem]

also using bike as a duner also so that is why I did not go with the lockout.

[hole shot bog problem]

needles are OG

plugs gapped at 22, I have tried new plugs also.

squish and gaskets I will need to ask shawn.

pistons and rings were good he said so we used them.

I will talk to shawn tonight.

 

was your friends clip 2nd from top or bottom ?

[hole shot bog problem]

dang, I hope it does not need a 160, smallest I have is a 162

[hole shot bog problem]

Motor was completely disassembled and put back together by shawn at proformance prototype after I purchased it used.

I have +10 swinger

110 race gas

New drive line clutch , no lockout

I do not know what needles are in it,  I do not know how to tell .

I did a glug chop last night with 168 mains, to me it looks lean but I am going to have shawn look at it this weekend.

[hole shot bog problem]

It is not ported, sand drags but I am testing in my field with ambush 22's

+4 timing

compression 162 with 20cc domes 

[hole shot bog problem]

I have trouble with my hole shot, it just bogs most of the time and the drags are next week and at the moment I will have to bring my 4poke because this thing is not going to cut it.

I am trying to take off in second gear

I have a 421 cub, 33pwk carbs on 110 mix is 32:1 jetting 170 mains 600' elevation.

 sprockets 15/43

22" tires

I have tried a bunch of different gearing and some different jets, needle is currently 2nd from bottom.

any suggestions ?

It seems everything I have tried does not work.

[--- Fox Float X Front Shocks ---]

second in line , do you have what looks like the needed spacers and pump as well ?

[poor starting when cold ( why )]

I ended up grabbing a couple pilot jets off ebay, I did not want to wait.

 

I started it this morning one kick with choke held all the way out, I do not think it sat long enough.

I will try again in 4-5 days

[poor starting when cold ( why )]

Thanks guys for the help, I will post back on how the bike starts again with holding the choke out.

 

Does anyone have a extra set of 30 pilots for sale ? I hate ordering from jets r us

[poor starting when cold ( why )]

now that is has started, it starts first kick so now I will have to wait a day or more to see what it needs to start again.

So would it be a choke issue or would I need the 30 pilots.

would turning the air screw in from 1.5 - maybe 1 turn out tell me if it needs bigger pilots ?

[poor starting when cold ( why )]

I ended up moving clip to 2nd from bottom, the needle is longer then stock. ( will that be OK  ? )

So then I kicked it over 20 times and no start,

I then changed plugs, kicked it 7 times no start.

Then I held the choke all the way out while kicking and it started second kick.

So  do I need a new choke  ?  it only stays out on one click and will not stay out all the way.

[poor starting when cold ( why )]

My elevation is 600'

pilots are 27.5

needle clip is 3rd from bottom

I removed one carb it was wet when I took it off

[poor starting when cold ( why )]

Reeds are good, I actually purchased the bike a while ago and had new rings put on it for the heck of it, plug caps are unknown on age so probably the originals.

I am going to go out and check on the pilots and the needle clip position, I will post back in 20

[poor starting when cold ( why )]

Yes choke tube is on,

do you think it would be carb related ?

[poor starting when cold ( why )]

Yes carbs cleaned many times,  270 mains,  air screw out 1.5 turns, new fuel lines .

[poor starting when cold ( why )]

Yes, I have it written down, off the top of my head it is 126 in both

[poor starting when cold ( why )]

one of my banshees starts hard when cold, it takes over 20-40 kicks to get it started, it has good compression, stock carbs with air box removed and toomy pipes.

once warm it starts usually with a kick. and runs real good.

what should I look at for trying to solve this pain in the butt.
