rdzbangshee Posted December 25, 2010 Report Share Posted December 25, 2010 what carbs you got could be a plugged pilot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jereme6655 Posted December 25, 2010 Report Share Posted December 25, 2010 my bike was doing the same thing when i first picked it up.....turned out to be too small of a pilot jet (stock). what pipes are you running and what pilot jet do you have in the bike? may want to try and jump up one size...

fastbanshee8 Posted December 25, 2010 Report Share Posted December 25, 2010 Take the carbs off, one at a time, clean, and reassemble them. It may be time to change the plugs, and plug boots, just to eliminate those, as possible problems. Make sure the carbs are synched, jetted, and adjusted the same.

TNTS355 Posted December 25, 2010 Report Share Posted December 25, 2010 Look at your reeds also when you take the carbs off. A lot of people over look the reeds when they have problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jereme6655 Posted December 26, 2010 Report Share Posted December 26, 2010 my left cylinder was doing the exact same thing.....the right was running perfectly fine (or it seemed) and at idle it would run fine......give it a little throttle and the left cyl would cut out and around when i hit mid-throttle (where the main needle was really startin to open up) the left cylinder would actually come back and it would run like a raped ape...

fastbanshee8 Posted December 26, 2010 Report Share Posted December 26, 2010 Get a set of 27.5 pilots, and put them in, like someone else had said. You're too lean on the pilot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
