badassbanshee479 Posted May 25, 2005 Report Posted May 25, 2005 I think I have my jetting close my plug is looking good tanish brown after each ride, the problem is, when I come into the mid range and try to rev through the high end my bike starts breaking up and studering. is this a jetting problem or is my ignition taking a $h1t? also when I rev 5th and 6th gear out and let off it bogs when I get back into the gas, I have to dwn shift and rev the crap out of it to get back into the power band, will bigger carbs fix this ??

badassbanshee479 Posted May 25, 2005 Author Report Posted May 25, 2005 Are you at WOT? 373652[/snapback] when it brakes up yes, but when I come off the gas and let the rrrs die off alittle I have to clutch it back into the power band or I have to down shift a gear moving the needle seemed to help alittle but not that much, do I need bigger carbs to solve this??

If the carbs are tuned correctly, it shouldn't do this. Quote
Master of Faster Posted May 26, 2005 Report Posted May 26, 2005 If you can't solve it with jetting check your ignition. I just went through the same problem, turned out to be a bad spark plug boot Quote

badassbanshee479 Posted May 31, 2005 Author Report Posted May 31, 2005 where is everyone running there spark plug gap at? I pulled my plugs and checked them and they where at .045 so I moved them into .024 and it helped with the breaking up, but it is still there slightly Quote
westcoastatv Posted June 2, 2005 Report Posted June 2, 2005 where is everyone running there spark plug gap at? I pulled my plugs and checked them and they where at .045 so I moved them into .024 and it helped with the breaking up, but it is still there slightly 375921[/snapback] Try running your plugs at .018" - .022". This can make a huge difference in top end performance in some cases. Quote
badassbanshee479 Posted June 3, 2005 Author Report Posted June 3, 2005 so what gap are they suppose to be. 376965[/snapback] climers manual says .024 is the stock gap. I will try moving mine in some more and see if it takes care of the problem thanks for the help Quote
sredish Posted June 3, 2005 Report Posted June 3, 2005 Hell, I never gap my plugs, guess I should, but never have. I pull the BR8's out of the box and throw them in, and they've always worked perfectly... Quote
