Might sound stupid but is there enough fuel in the tank?
I was cleaning a mates carb last week and after cleaning turned on the bike but the lft side had was bogging and had no pressure. After an hour of trying to figure it out, I had a look in the tank and there was only enough fuel for the reserve tank so I switched it on reserve and all ran well.
I am about to buy a set of vforce 4's. Will I need to re-jet once installed? If so do I go up or down a size?
On a side note, I cant test the jetting/dp a plug chop myself since I live near the city and cant ride anywhere near my place. All I know about my jetting is its a 280 main and a 27.5 pilot.
Well if it helps. I have k&n with outerwear with lid on, dmc 916 exhaust, 3400-4000ft above sea level. My jetting is 280 mains and 27.5 pilot. try going down a size or two in main. Also try 27.5 pilot.
Im also a fabricator. I'd say go with powder-coat. We usually paint our steel by hand in the workshop, it is some thick shit and I've seen it last for over 5 years though the down side is it doesnt look good but if you go and pay to get it painted it wont be as thick so it will be less durable. Every time out company payed to get it painted it would easily chip off from shifters and wrenches hitting it when we would put the nuts and bolts on but wouldnt chip off from the ones we painted by hand.
I wouldnt really consider that as a problem, more like a query.
Either way I never said I wasnt going to ride it because it was too hot. I mainly go beach on the weekends in summer so I dont ride the quad much. Next time dont assume things.
