skywalker7374 Posted January 28, 2013 Report Posted January 28, 2013 You need to do a plug chop...Look it up online, you will find some tips for sure. You may be rich or lean, its hard to say unless you do a plug chop. Lean and Rich conditions can actually act very similar in a lot of ways, so be careful. Good luck..Windy is right, you need to do a lot of studying before you tackle this one, because it doesn't sound like your builder has tuned the carbs properly. Quote

badbanshee509 Posted January 28, 2013 Author Report Posted January 28, 2013 i know i need to learn a lot with this alky bike and that why i ask questions on here so you guys can shine a little light on the situation, i just ordered my pancake barring due to me burning my rod and ball the other day so once i get the bike up and running, i am deffinently going to have him tune the carbs, i just hope to learn this as i go so i dont need to keep driving an two hours away just to get to my mechanic. i definently need to learn to read the plugs.

badbanshee509 Posted January 28, 2013 Author Report Posted January 28, 2013 Your going from riding a bike that never needed any tuning to an alky bike?..... You've never run alky and don't have plug checking and plug reading knowledge/experience?........ I see an epic melt down in the future. Your going to have to park it and do alot of Research/ Reading till your at least 60% confident in the basics......then the real learning curve begins. i completely agree bro. but you and everyone else on here started exactly like i did, lol we all learned froms some one on how to do these things, and someone above stated a plug chop on a alky bike is not worth it, so do i or do i dont plug chop lol, Quote

I agree that they don't show a lot as far as idle, 1/4 throttle, or 1/2 throttle, but they tell a shitload about WOT. Well at least mine do lol. Quote

Ctown208 Posted January 29, 2013 Report Posted January 29, 2013 Search for a thread by me that's called jetting a 14mill dm.. Lots of links Quote
Rotax Raptor Posted January 29, 2013 Report Posted January 29, 2013 If I missed this sorry, but did you change your plugs to b9's and gap them to 18 to 19 thousands? I went through this and after detonation issues and redoing the topend we figure out it was lean. Are you blowing fuel out the pipes when you Rev it? If not I would say lean. Quote
ONLY2STROKES Posted January 29, 2013 Report Posted January 29, 2013 its really fairly simple after you learn and work with it a bit. there is alot of great info here http://prosanddrags.com/forums/ubbthreads.php/topics/1557/1 i would suggest to read it, a few times. Quote
badbanshee509 Posted January 29, 2013 Author Report Posted January 29, 2013 I hear ya bro... Just saying, expect a top end out of the deal. lol if i do go tnrough a topend then im definently going DM 4 mill lol sooo......... Quote
