Roger that I’ll leave it on. You have any experience with, I think they’re called, track stands? Stable enough to put the bike on there take the...
Yes he’s gotten a few hundred bucks out of me last week or two! Good dude! But I figure if I can get them locally I could finish the carbs up by...
Power wasn’t really a concern. It’s already got everything cut off from the x pipe back
Will that HF kit include the appropriate sized o rings for fuel supply tubes you think?
Thanks for all the tips guys. Another question, my pipes are chopped just past the x-pipes. Do those x pipes (collectors?) cause any additional...
Yes I actually pulled my mixture screws out the other day to see how they work and couldn’t get the o ring out. Got a set of picks on the way....
I reaaaaaaallllyyy don’t want to crack the carbs off the rack. Guess I don’t have much of a choice
@k-moe any tips for cleaning the tubes the emulsion tube sits in? I been sitting here scrubbing it with a brush and carb cleaner for a half hour I...
Sounds good, I’ll be doing that when I rebuild the forks in the coming months
This is the bike, yes. I want to get rid of everything up front and opt for a clean minimal setup. Thanks
Definitely a sin, but I’m cool with it! Okay so they’re called fork shrouds! Gotcha. Mine are measuring 43mm and I will be buying some new...
The section I’m talking about isn’t even included in that diagram. What are the tubes between the triples called?
They’re fairly new. 6mos at most. Once I got home (I’m on overnight shift at the moment) I didn’t have a dime around but I cross referenced the...
It does have a zero button, close it all the way down hit the zero button and you’re good to go. But yeah, I guess they’re fubar
Great, thanks
ive got a cheap pair of calipers and wondering if they’re reading correctly. Trying to get a new headlight setup. Thanks
Haven’t tried 43’s yet only 42’s
45’s were recommended to me by k-Moe earlier and so far all of his help through the years has been spot on. And as I said earlier I accidentally...
Great. Now, I’m able to find drill sizes for mains pretty easy but I’m only really finding one chart for pilots. I came up with .018 or #77 for a...
So about drilling out the pilots to 45... how can I learn more about this? Sorry for raising a dead post but I’m going thru my carbs again and...
Sorry to hear that, luckily I work in sunny Miami, FL on a charter boat. Not much risk aside from lightning strikes. I'll check the plugs on my...
I honestly thought it was just dumping excess gas into the exhaust and it was getting burned up. Didn't think anything of it. At the end of the...
Haha Gotcha
she pops on decel only when I'm dogging her real hard. No tach so I couldn't tell you exactly but, I've gotta really be on that throttle in a...
Just a note tho she idled like a champ after she's choked on startup.
Haven't pulled the plugs since the carbs were rebuilt and no colortune. Maybe over my days off I'll check it out and order the 43's.
Pilots are 42's. Thanks !
Lol. Doesn't bother me enough to remove the pods. Just takes an additional 30 seconds if the bike is cold. NBD.
That's the factory airbox, no?
Speaking hyperbolically ofcourse. Does seem to take some effort to get started if it's been sitting for longer than a few hours. Cranks first...
When the forum said it couldn't be done :) followed the writeup to a T for jet sizes. Seems to work great.
The bike has been built and riding for about a year now. Only reason I may break it down is because it's the cheaper option to buying a second...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] I know y'all hate it when we chop these things up, but I haven't posted in a while and the rust is just starting to mature. :)...
Wow... That thing IS awesome. But would look terrible on my beater :)
Can you post an example picture? I'm really thinking of a tiny minimal fender just to keep my back dry when the roads are damp.
That it was!
yeah possibly hahaha I want to put a rear fender on but can't figure out what I want.
[ATTACH] To the OP. I run pods. I live in South Florida so your results may vary. I used the pod calculator on the forum here to figure out what...
[ATTACH] Also, some may say I've destroyed the bike... But I like it :cool:
Thanks for all the information guys. Whenever the weather clears up down here I will get to work. Thanks!
Any helpful links for rebuilding the calipers?
Hey guys, Front brakes seem a little mushy and don't seem to do much. This is my first bike so I thought maybe that's just how it was but a buddy...
750. Where to I connect these two leads? I'd assume I run power from the fuse panel to the switch and then from the switch to the brake light?
Figured out the rear brake. Now what about this front brake?
Alright guys I finally finished up most of my bike. Had to wire a whole new harness and rebuild carbs and all sorts of stuff. Anyway! I've got...
Physical Vapor Deposition. There's different kinds of coats, some are good for corrosion resistance, others for lubricity but they also look...
The handlebars are straight bars. Something like drag bars but zero bends in them. They're low. Stock carbs. All the info you posted may as well...
Thanks!! Now, what cable do I get or does this work with the stock cables?
hey guys I'm finally buttoning up my build and need a new throttle cable and throttle tube but don't know where to begin looking. I've already...
I wouldn't even try using the coating on plastic bud. Everything you put in there needs to be sandblasted and a lot of plastic won't stand up to...
