long time, no update, huh?
Well, after just riding up n down 300 foot dirt bumpy driveway, I got brave, and took her out on the main road. still no brakes mind you.
I get to the bottom of my driveway, and am eyeballin the amount of traffic comming and going. sometimes it a gd highway, and sometimes it like im the last man on earth. lucky me! not a car in sight.
pop in first gear, give a rev, and pull onto the street, uphillclimb, kind of steep.
Pulled really great thru to 3rd gear 45 mph, back wheel painfully needs balancing, got to the top of the hill to go home(no brakes). I coasted down the hill with my kill switch off, and used my clutch to slow me down in second. When I got to my drive, I turned kill to run, and popped the clutch, started right up, and rode on home.
when I pulled into my garage, I turned the petcock off to burn the gas in the carbs. The next day, I tried to start it, and no start. a little spray with carb cleaner, and it acts like its outta gas. I have gas. I have 34's, john needles.
it startes, and if i f with the throlle, full choke, it runs, but acts like its flooding. I tried with no choke, it only runs on carb cleaner., its bachfiring blue flame, and spitting back thru one carb I, m guessing my pilot is plugged, so Ill check it this weekend. got hooligans 38's to tune in, so they have to come off anyway for that. I have a fully charged battery, and the bike is charging(headlight brighter when reved)
Things to check:
pilots
floats
fuel filter
valves
camchain
any thoughts?
