Capone Posted February 10, 2005 Report Posted February 10, 2005 My current mods are listed below, I just upgraded fuel to accomidate the 185psi, I changed to "c-12" or 113 octane. Everything seems ok now, but when I rev sometimes it holds rev for a minute, don't go back to idle, after idling for about 5 min, it will sputter & die, just wondering what my current jetting & airscrew settings should be, its currently main jet: 330, pilot 27.5, air screw 1 1/4 turns out...any help would be appreciated thanks for reading..

ledofthezep Posted February 11, 2005 Report Posted February 11, 2005 You may check for air leaks to see if it's sucking air for some reason. Other than that, make sure you're carbs are clean, choke tube's in place, air filter is clean. If it runs fine & will idle for that long before it chokes itself up, I'd want to say you're jetting is probably ok...may do a plug chop to check for sure. Anyhoo...just saw you had no replies & figured I'd at least give you some things to check. Quote
stclark816 Posted February 11, 2005 Report Posted February 11, 2005 Sounds like its starving for fuel when idling, like too small of a pilot? Quote
SANDSTAR Posted February 11, 2005 Report Posted February 11, 2005 Prolly not a good idea to leave it running sitting still for too very long. May heat up on ya. Try some of the old fuel you used to run. Check your last mod you did on your bike. If it was running good before, most likely whatever you did had some kind of adverse effect. Heard about a guy that changed his shocks on a car. Next thing his car won't stay running. Got all frantic, couldn't figure it out. Started replacing stuff. Spent $2500. Finally found the problem--One of those new shocks had pinched a fuel line closed. Usually somthing simple. Quote
Capone Posted February 13, 2005 Author Report Posted February 13, 2005 (edited) actually I haven't left the garage since rebuild, after a couple 20 min break ins, and riding around the yard, I took it out and gave it a hell of a break in. I raced a 95 CBR 600. I must say I held my own, until about end of 5 gear I had him... amazing power difference in running 113octane (the 20 extra cc's, & 185psi compression) probably help out too . I rode for about 2 hours today, light at first, then warmed it up and gave it hell. I think the prolites feel alot better than the vito's. With the Vito's SuperStock's the powerband was like a lightswitch, either on or off. the prolites even out the powerband, and it feels VERY nice now. Rode for about 2 hours, hopped off of it and it idled perfect. It could use a bigger pilot I believe, I'm running it rich on the needle, but I'm going to keep it that way. Very crisp and responsive, 5th gear powerband wheelies, I like! Little late, but I appreciate the simpathy replies... lol ::edit:: also I took air screw only 1/2 a turn out, instead of 1 1/4, helped bottom end alot Edited February 13, 2005 by VitoBanshee Quote
