nj2016 Posted December 18, 2019 Report Share Posted December 18, 2019 So my dad is having problems with his bike again after having some work done, this is exactly what he sent me "received new top end with minor head work and replaced factory TORS carb tops with aftermarket now: no power band the right side pipe doesn't get hot and when you but hand behind tail pipe left side is hot and dry right side gets wet from gas and is not hot changed plugs several times changed wires from one plug to other to see if it was wire etc made no difference carbs have to be working because fuel is coming out tail pipe took off reed cage both sides see no obstructions and checked that pistons were going up and down through reed cage opening" I had him check compression, if I remember what he said correctly it was 90 on the side that was running right and 85 on the other. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nj2016 Posted December 19, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2019 He doesn't think it is flooding, nothing is coming out of the overflow. I'll tell him to still check the float level. No he is in AZ and I am in CA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoppedupandcutdown Posted December 19, 2019 Report Share Posted December 19, 2019 Could also be flooded, excess fuel in the case and pipes. I've had it happen several times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
