fckawhipboughtabanshee Posted April 21, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2018 Sully Awesome thanks man I was a bit worried about it. most def I'll ask him what psi are in each jug , leak down , pressure, anything else I should be looking for I'll honestly post up some better pics once I get the motor tomorrow he had sent those through phone so u can't see detail to well. I'm stoked about getting it back sully about those domes I got 22 there were the only ones I could find do I need to have him do anything with a cool head top?

Its important that this is done. A compression and pressure test are different. -22 domes should be good, just do a compression test and make sure your not over 150 psi for pump gas. -Make sure you post the jetting specs in here before you start this thing up.

Larry's Shee Posted April 21, 2018 Report Share Posted April 21, 2018 Reliability will depend on YOU. Tuning being the biggest thing. Run it on the rich side, because you'll be running longer distances at almost full throttle. Also gear it so you don't have to scream it to go the speed you'll cruise at. Yamahaused the same basic design in a street bike. Worn out parts are guaranteed to break sooner than later. Keep up on maintenance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fckawhipboughtabanshee Posted April 22, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2018 Got it running ! Idling a little high any suggestions, and for the clutch it's not stiff at the handle bar lever a little loose which is where it's not fully engaging so I'm smashing them in gears any help would greatly appreciate on thatSent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackandYellowBanshee Posted April 22, 2018 Report Share Posted April 22, 2018 Try adjusting your idle screws for your high idle. Your throttle cable may also need a little slack if it’s tugging your slides up slightly. As far as the clutch goes.... Take out slack on your perch on the clutch cable. If that doesn’t work, you will have to adjust at the basket or your cable is stretched. Push on the clutch actuator arm on the top of the case with your fingers. It should stop when the arrow on the arm meets the arrow on the case. When you have that adjustment... lock the nut adjuster screw and take out slack on the perch. You should have a little “free play” in your lever. It shouldn’t be so stiff that the clutch cable is completely tight through the entire clutch pull.
