fuel question
ok guys i want to check this with you
bike has its pair system removed. there is a line coming off the rear cylinder, vacuum line this connects to the rear of the petcock i believe? there is the front line coming off the carb, which used to go to the pair, its plugged. the bike has A LOT of backfire, with a dj kit, running dj specs, 4th clip, 2.25 turns out. am i missing something ? to me the way the bike is acting is an air leak somewhere.... suggestions/ideas?? cheers |
running too lean maybe? what jets/exhaust combo are you running?
|
180/185 2.25 turns out, jardine high mounts, stock filter, pair removed, etc......
just did a lil tweaking, did a lil sync on the carbs, prob seems better, will check again in the am when i can actually put load on it |
FWIW
Spec on the pilot screws is 2.5 out on 49 state bikes, 2.75 on California models. |

Those big honking carbs are might picky sometimes... Getting it half right is easy... Getting it spot on takes some tinkering and a few curses usually... |
hahah aint it the truth, thats why i enjoy lambada tuning lol on fi bikes :)
but the bike is fine for now, it will hit the dyno and get a fine tune |
