Re: bike running like ****

what the **** would the plugs have to do with the air/fuel mixture cable being pulled all the way out?

Re: bike running like ****

how many turns out are the air fuel screws? try setting them to 2 1/2 turns outmost bikes you can set between 2-3 turns out...but clean your pluggs while your at it then test it

Re: bike running like ****

theres no fuel/air mix "cable" screws.. yes, theres 4 oif them, which you need the entire carb rack off the bike or need a $20 scredriver with a 90 on the end to turn them.

idle cable? choke cable?

the choke cable DOES in essence adjust A/F, but it does so by picking the vacuum pistons up a bit to draw the needle out of the emulsion tube.

i'd say look at sync. if it was knocked out, that'll **** **** up.

my trick is to NOT sync at idle tho. i sync (I-4 engines) at 4-6KRPM. this pulls you off the low-speed circuit and past the transitional port to the high speed circuit, but thinking about it now, you might wanna just sync at ide, since you spend most of your time there.

any other time, sync off idle for smoothness. trust me.

as well, like everyone else said, look at plugs.. ****.. make that the first thing if you haven't already. that'll tell you alot about how that ***** running.

good luck bro
