stringbeanbowler Posted November 27, 2009 Report Posted November 27, 2009 pop your plugs out and see what they look like. that would be the best way to know the fuel condition. also pull the choke one notch while riding and see if it reacts better. Good call on the choke tip. From what I understand the choke either cuts the air in half or dumps a lot of fuel to the engine, or both. Either way, it'll tell you if you need more fuel if it runs better with the choke on. : ] Quote
camatv Posted November 27, 2009 Report Posted November 27, 2009 maybe i'man idiot here but did you say that there was a crumpled up outerware INSIDE the air filter area where the carbs split??!!! inside the airbox against the carbs? Quote
AKheathen Posted November 28, 2009 Report Posted November 28, 2009 yah, that was the initial issue here..........and the choke only works from idle to somewhere below 1/2 throttle, so it will not tell you anything a bout the mains... Quote
Bansheeb0y5505 Posted November 29, 2009 Report Posted November 29, 2009 Welcome dude! It's DMC-4OOEX from exriders. So I see ya switched over to the dark side eh? You'll love it once it's tuned right! Btw, im running DMC 916's (same head pipes as aliens) and mine runs great with 270 mains, open box, K&N, and 27.5 pilots. Quote

You'll love it once it's tuned right! Btw, im running DMC 916's (same head pipes as aliens) and mine runs great with 270 mains, open box, K&N, and 27.5 pilots. Hey man good to see ya, yea to be honest i alwas secretly wanted a yamaha but i grew up in a honda family Worked my way up first a halfbred blaster powered 400ex and now a full blood yamaha. ANYWHO... The only thing i have gotten finished is rebuilding (freshened up probly is a better word) the carbs and put new pilots and mains and put the clip in the middle of the slide needle. Btw after i put slids in i noticed i think i put them in backwards the flush buttom goes toward the engine right? CANT do anything more to it for another week cause i got a business trip (SUCKS being a grownup!). When get back i should have the DMC exhuast in by then with the new front fenders, clutch cable (snapped the orginal), K&N pod filters. Edited November 29, 2009 by FROSTBITE1 Quote
