Carb issue ?

[LowlyOilBurner]

Ok, got the bike running ok tonite. Starts and idles fine. The only issue now is when you roll into the throttle from idle, it bogs down briefly, then revs fine. Top end power is fine.

 

Here is what we have done/checked to get to this point:

-checked coil pickup gap=fine @.02

-sync carbs (both slides engage at the same time)

-a/f screws set @ 1.5 turns out

-compression is 120psi in each hole

-choke cross over tube is installed correctly

-no false air leaks past the carbs

-swapped plug wires between cylinders with no real change

-disconnected TORS, reconnected TORS, no change

-slides are installed correctly

 

The other thing we noticed was the bike is running very hot. By hot I mean EGT's. Seem way too hot. This would point to a too lean or too rich condition. What should we check from here? Jets?

 

I'm going to rig up a sniffer pipe to stab onto the tail pipes to check a/f ratios. (basically a pipe to slip over the tail pipe outlet with a wideband bung welded into it, and an Innovate wideband sensor and controller to actually read a/f ratios).

 

Any input from here would be good. Basically looking to get rid of low end "bog" and cool down egt's. Btw: main jets are 200's. We are at like 700ft above sea level, +/-.

 

Thanks!!!

Changed main jets and hooked up my make shift tail pipe sniffer with a wideband o2 sensor and dailey it in perfectly. Runs like a top now! Rippin, not wrenching anymore!
