Re: Problems

brake light fluid is low.....lol



but for real, pull the carb off, tear it down and clean out the jets..you probably have a clogged jet.

make sure your floats arent sticking....did you go through and clean the whole carb? check your air mixture screw...screw it all the way in, then back it out 2 1/2 turns...and see if that clears it up...2 1/2 turns out is the factory settings on most carbs. are there any mods to the bike? unless something is broken on the carb there should be no reason to replace it.
