detailman Posted June 20, 2008 Report Posted June 20, 2008 (edited) Bike ran awesome, then I wrecked it. It sat for about a year and a half, now it has no low end torque. Nothing seems to have happenend to the motor, replaced the plugs, played with the carbs. Still has top end power. Where should I start? Reeds, rusty bore, timing? HELP!!!!

jamebo Posted June 21, 2008 Report Posted June 21, 2008 Yes, if you didn't drain the carbs beforehand and it's been sitting for that long it could definitely have some gunk in the carbs causing problems. Quote
Animalman294 Posted June 23, 2008 Report Posted June 23, 2008 Ya, nothings worse than having old gas dry up in the carbs and gum up the jets............ Quote

Washburn Posted June 25, 2008 Report Posted June 25, 2008 what do you have in the way of mods? a Noss Head with smaller domes and a timing plate set to +4 (18cc domes and +7 timing is the shit but you would need race fuel) will wake your lowend problems rite up. Quote
