Surfrjag Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 It shouldnt be rich with those setting but we dont know what needle you have. Take some time and go over your electrical and check those reeds out. They directly effect response at initial theottle opening Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antd913 Posted May 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 Reeds are good . they are seated good no cracks . electrical is solid . got good blue spark . I checked harness out all good . it's the black spark plugs that is killing me . They look rich . and the bogg getting worse when it warms up seems everything symptomatic of a rich running pilot circuit .

Surfrjag Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 New plugs didnt help? Old fuel? Try turning your air screws out to 2.5 and see if it helps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antd913 Posted May 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 Yes New plugs do help but quickly get black , fuel is fresh . I will try the airscrew ajustment . if it improves do you think drop a pilot jet size and bring airscrew back to 1 1/2 turns out.

banshee#527 Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 Where do you ride in NY? I've been out of the scene for awhile and looking for some riding spots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
registered user Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 yep I would try the airscrew 2.5-3.5 out. if bog decreases youll want to try bigger pilots. might need to try smaller diam needle as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surfrjag Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 He ment smaller pilots ^ and leaner needle Find out what needle you have. Also clean your air filters if its been a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
registered user Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 no I didn't meen smaller pilot and needle. a bog from my experience is one or more of the circuits to lean. my mistake on the airscrews, meant he should turn them in and see if the bog changes for the better 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antd913 Posted May 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 Banshee#527 ..I live on long island . No good spots to ride here anymore . unless you want to spend your day running from cops . most of the local pay to ride tracks suck and don't like people with banshee believe it or not . I ride mostly in upstate ny I have 70 acres to ride on . Sent from my VS985 4G using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banshee#527 Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 Where upstate? I live in Putnam County just north of Westchester. My family has 47 acres upstate in Chenango county, Sherburne I believe, but they are looking to sell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antd913 Posted May 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 ok so, I just put 45 pilot jet in and idle screw at 1 1/2 , and moved needle clip to the 3rd position . took It out for a quick ride and seemed to be more responsive low end , pulled the plugs and they are much lighter in color ( white with a little brownish color ) . I thnk I'm close with some minor airscrew adjustments needed ,I will have a better idea when I get a chance to ride it for more time hopefully its just aircrew adjustments from here on out .
