mcferreira100 Posted April 30, 2014 Author Share Posted April 30, 2014 Well there it is..some issues still: - Still has quite a nasty miss in midrange revs (must still change accelerator pump diaphragm) - Hard cold starting (had to use quickstart again this morning) - Orange peel on the tank paint job - Exhaust looks terrible (actually could use a new header pipe) - Seat needs attention (a blue seat..whose idea was that??) Otherwise very happy with it..these issues can wait as I need a road bike, so the RD project will take priority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcferreira100 Posted July 22, 2014 Author Share Posted July 22, 2014 Removed plug for inspection today as bike takes about 40 kicks to start. Still gonna checkout carb but thought would check plug gap..its within spec. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcferreira100 Posted July 23, 2014 Author Share Posted July 23, 2014 You not kidding..can hardly walk after all that kicking..XT500 easier to start. I would think it has some sort of fueling problem. Gonna climb into that carb soon..would just like to get Elsie out the way first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
