Hello all,
I'm needing help in the worst way. I've hit a wall trying to tune my carb. I'll start by listing what I've done so far. I'll include pics of exhaust, and choke delete.
1) Stock exhaust mod: gutted two chambers, removed one baffle, shortened mufflers by 4 inches.
2) PAIR delete, installed Goheen dimpled plates.
3) Stock airbox decap, still running HiFlo air filter.
4) choke delete, spring was still taught so added screw upside down to create more tension so valve would remain closed.
5) Installed Glen's permanent A/F screw.
6) Installed Keihin 58 main jet.
7) Installed Keihin 198, 200, 202, and 208 pilot jets, all made bike run WAY too rich. Reinstalled factory Keihin 195, still running WAY rich
8) Replaced vacuum line from petcock, checked fuel line from petcock, flow is great!
9) Replaced float needle with OEM Honda part.
10) Checked and cleaned spark plugs after each test run, checked for spark, all are great. Tried gapping at .035 and .032...runs better at .032.
11) Also changed coolant, and triple checked oil level. Still have 2000+ miles till due for change.
12) Replaced diaphragm had huge cracks.
13)Did Scar mod, clipped the tit, tried 2 washers, ran too rich and seemed to run fat the whole ride. 1 washer ran best on maiden voyage. Great acceleration, no backfire, little rich but not bad. Let sit 2 hours rode 1 mile, died. Adjusted A/F to lean out, turned idle up by tiny turn. Ran ok. Died 3 more times during the day, each time I leaned it out more.
Removed the one washer from jet needle, now boggs down and unrideable.
Currently set at 1.25 turns out on A/F screw, idle is probably 900-1200 rpms.
Help please! This is my only transportation right now. I'm stuck 18miles away from town in the country, so can't make it in to do ANYTHING.
Thanks,
Moose
