Getting closer to getting bike done and looking forward to breaking it in. Was wondering what some of you would recommend to start out with to be safe.

Mods include: Cool Head w/ 20cc domes, VForce 2 reeds, +4 timing, stock carbs, K&N pods w/ outerwears, T5's. I live in southeastern Ohio and believe elevation is like 800ft. around there, definitely below 1000ft. It has been a warm summer here in 90's and lows in 80's. Just looking for a good baseline. I know i'll have 27.5 pilots. Thx. :notworthy:

if i were you, i would do a plug chop on the bike, if you have somewhere to do it. That will exactly tell you if your bike is running rich, or lean. And that way you know that what you have in it right now, you know to go one size up or down, depending on the results of the plug chop

No I am making changes to the mods but there was no failure. I just couldn't get the bike to run right and suspected air leak and dicided to rering it and then ended up completely tearing everything apart and starting from scratch where I then found some different things.

 

Bike had 18cc domes and +10 timing. I wasn't aware as previous owner got it in a trade and didn't know much about it and was not running race fuel.

Missing the motor mounts that attach to underside of crankcase.

Tore rubber boot where airbox connects to carb.

When I first got it the TORS was removed but no kit installed.

Several other things I forget but yah I wanted to know what I had so I tore it down. I decided to put pods on it and chang timing to +4 and 20cc domes.

I would say 320 to 330. Its better top start rich and lean it out to where it needs to be. A shee will run its dick off on a lean condition until it blows. So definitely do a plug chop
