'87 shee

Mmk...for ppl that care ab their motor do ur self a favor nd run an air box if ur goin through water or mud. If a k&n gets wet it sucks the oil out of it losing sum of its ability to filter the air. Me nd mine; i like all the protection i can get to ensure the longevity of my motor nd a whole lot less cleaning of carburetors. To.each their own

I have pretty much the same set up. I run half 93 ethanol free nd half 110 nd i live in arkansas. Im prolly pushin a lil more compression than u tho. 174psi...hope it helps. Do a compression test nd go from there...ne thing above 160 psi run at least half nd half...ne thing under id run ethanol free 91 and lucas octane booster

A splash guard or air box is definitely needed! Mine had open k&n when i first got it. One tiny lil splash from a 4 inch mud puddle nd i knew that for a fact. Bought a new OEM airbox nd run with no lid 10x better.

Ive got the 1 pic on here. Im on my celly and tella me all my other.files r too big to upload

Well guys thanks for all the help and suggestions but i have figured it out im pretty sure. Ive nvr worked on the bike myself bc i nvr claimed to be a mechanic and i wanted it done professionally and right. I guess that was entirely too much to ask. The shop i took it to has stripped out the top cap on the left carb and is sucking air and barely even on there. Thats where all my hesitation and un-even burn has to be coming from. I found it today when i went to drain the gas to run race fuel. Thanks a lot mckays cycle shop in russellville arkansas!

It practically was. All the bearings and everything were shot from jus sitting. Hence the rebuild. I want to do the bike justice and have it run as good as.it looks

Yea. Decent size for arkansas. Russellville. Like 35,000 ppl i think

Yea. It was the 1st one evr here where i live nd i remenber seein it as a kid and i wanted it then. Im 25 now and had an opportunity to buy it. Dream come true lol

No porting that i kno of. Its an old bike and i kno it sat on the showroom floor til '06

Ive been trying everyday to get race fuel this week. I live nxt to a drag strip nd they have it. Getn ahold of them during the week is a different story

The more compression u have the higher octane u need to run.

Last weekend we loaded up to go ride and got to the gas station and they were out of ethanol free 93 so i had to try 89 and ran HORRIBLE. Buddy happened to have octane booster and ran 10x better when it was added but still ran like crap

He wanted me to run it leaner bc it was smoking a lil heavy when u first start it up. Clears up after u run it for a bit tho. He basically tld me i was an idiot that ddn kno how to mix oil

I will have sum tthis weekend and the plugs r in my truck. I will report back with results

If it were electronics which would u say it was most likely to be? Sorry this is my first 2 stroke and i jus want it perfect.

It wouldnt evn start with br8es plugs in it either. Had to go to br7es which is a hotter plug jus to run

Im not completely sure. I had the biggest nd supposedly best shop around here do it and i gave them an unlimited budget tld them i wanted it to scream but keep it stock-ish to preserve the history of the bike. I saw the compression guage tho and have re checked it myself and still at 174 psi. Im thinkin/hoping i jus need race fuel? Would that cause all the hesitation?

My professional shopped blamed it on me mixing my oil 40:1 and told me to run 50:1 so i hesitantly did on my brand new motor and seemed to help a little bit but not much.

Ok. So i bought an '87 shee that was the first one evr in my area here in arkansas. My dream bike as a kid. Ive had a professional shop do all my work. 40 ovr bore wiseco forged pistons. Hot rods crank stock stroke vforce 3 reeds cpi in frame drag pipes completely rebuilt carbs and milled head putn out 174 psi compression. Brand new clutch all new gaskets. Uses no coolant or oil from the clutch no leaks of ne kind. Ive been running ethanol free 93 and am doing my best to get.sum race fuel at the moment. Idles perfect but in midrange it hits a point and.loses power and u have to jus hammer into it to get it to climb up into the power band and seems to lose the right cylinder half the time it does not fire. And seems.to run a lil richer on the right cylinder. My professional shop tells me nothing is wrong with it its not.the gas and its perfect. Y so much hesitation and losing fire on the right cylinder?
