thesnake505 Posted January 1, 2015 Author Share Posted January 1, 2015 cheers guys, took bike out for first decent shake down today, think needs jetting with the exhaust thats on it as splutters every now and between 4000 and 5000 rpm which im guessing is between carbs! other then that it runs amazing didnt miss a beat and starts first kick when hot! only downer on the day was the three cafes we went to were closed and ended up in a chippy!!however 80ish road miles was good after 3 years of not riding 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy10bikes Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Good to hear the road test went well, if theres no baffles installed then theres a chance that it will want jetting. Other option would be to just make some and install on an end cap. TTB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesnake505 Posted January 6, 2015 Author Share Posted January 6, 2015 yo ttb there is a single baffle in the can, however i do think it want jetting, the can is very stright through! if holding 4000ish rpm it has a cough as you traveling along, its fine at any other rpm!

Tommy10bikes Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 At 4000 rpm thats when the other carb kicks in so it maybe worth adjusting the throttle linkage. TTB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
