SUCCESS!
5 days 3 hours ago
Hey guys, I know I could be a pain in the ass. Thanks for sticking with me on my carburetor rebuild.
I am happy to say that this motorcycle has never run better, even since new.
When it was new the bike used oil resulting in dirty spark plugs.
After engine rebuild, the carburetors have never been right, resulting in spark plugs fouling after every 400 or so miles - sooty.
Plugs 6,5,1 after running at 5k, killing ignition, coasting in, pulling plugs.
Plugs after running lower rpm, 2 - 3.5k for about 2 miles. #1 came out a little oily... but more than ok.
4,5,6
1,2,3
Throttle response is EXCELLENT, pulls hard to redline, no backfiring, no stumbles. Smooth and linear.
Idle is excellent.
I'm a very happy camper.
Thanks again guys,
d
