333bbb333 Posted February 20, 2010 Report Posted February 20, 2010 I am trying to get the shee dialed in and need a little help, it is bogging in the 0 to 1/4 throttle, possibly up into the 1/2. When I get her up and rolling she seems to do a lot better, and have that snappy shee feel. But when I first start off she doesnt want to be snappy right of the jump and through the initial rev, only once it hits the power band does it seem to ride right. I have 27.5 pilots, 290 mains in right now. Should I go down in the pilot or up im not really sure? I havnt done a plug chop, but the plugs look like the book says they should on the outside, they do have a little bit of oil on them but not soaking. The specs on the bike and location are as followes Sea Level Toomey T-6 Pipes Mikuni 28mm flat slide carbs/ with pods Intakes with built in crossover Other than that she is stock, stock bore, no porting, just rebuilt and installed a new crank and top end Quote
SAVAGE420 Posted February 20, 2010 Report Posted February 20, 2010 What are you air screws set at (turned out) from fully seated? Quote

333bbb333 Posted February 22, 2010 Author Report Posted February 22, 2010 Were is your needle at? They are set on the 3rd ring down from the top, out of 6 ring positions Quote
GrMeyer Posted February 22, 2010 Report Posted February 22, 2010 read up on this site... It is a good help on adj carbs. http://www.dfn.com/benkaren/jetfaq.html Also. Try turning in the air screws from being about 1-1/2 turns from fully seated. 3-1/2 might be lean with to winter temps. Also when jetting. Make sure you set your main jet first. Then the needle. then the air screws. You also might be a little lean with pods on running 290 mains. Quote
