got1banshee Posted February 17, 2004 Report Posted February 17, 2004 I finaly got it running and able to take her for a spin. I pulled the choke and it started right up, first kick then it died. It did that several times till it got up a litte rpms to stay running and never did it again, now it starts first kick hot or cold. IT ACTUALY IDELS TO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I put the 16/39 gears on it and went putting about 1/4 throttle pumping it to 1/2 throttle for the first couple of miles. I couln't help it but I had to get on it just a little and let me tell you, this is one mean hore!! I do think that I need to change my gears a little, the gears I have a great for drag but not good for the trails I think I will try 14/39 or 15/39. Right at idel it hesitates just a little but clears up really fast, I think the carbs need adjusted just a little. I didn't drive it that much because its all wet and dirty out but soon as it clears up a little I will drive her alot more and I will keep you all informed. Quote

XTShee Posted February 17, 2004 Report Posted February 17, 2004 Good to hear you got it running What was the prob, Stator as the shop said? Quote
got1banshee Posted February 17, 2004 Author Report Posted February 17, 2004 Good to hear you got it running What was the prob, Stator as the shop said? Nope the shop is on crack I think, It was a wire that had a short in it. The dealer told me that they charge 130 bucks to find out what was wrong with it and it took them 2 days. I went to pay for it and the basterds charged me 330 bucks not 130 like we agreed. What can I do about that?? Quote
Justintoxicated Posted February 17, 2004 Report Posted February 17, 2004 damn for $330 you could have bought 3 new stators! Quote
XTShee Posted February 17, 2004 Report Posted February 17, 2004 I thought it would have been something simple like that causing the prob. Unless you got a written quote, I dont think you can do much. It does sound a bit steep to just fix a shorting wire though. Quote
Big Blue Posted February 17, 2004 Report Posted February 17, 2004 I would raise hell over that, did you already pay? Quote
Proquad101 Posted February 17, 2004 Report Posted February 17, 2004 Got1 that is a nice lookin bike. After Jim did my motor I had a little problem getting my bike to idle and it would hesitate off the bottom but I just changed my jetting around and my needles until it was right. Have you raced that 152 in your picture yet? Quote
locogato11283 Posted February 18, 2004 Report Posted February 18, 2004 i would have hit the guy in the nose if he told me 330 bucks. thats fuckin rediculous. if they told you 130 then i cant imagine how it would have ended up being 330. Quote
got1banshee Posted February 18, 2004 Author Report Posted February 18, 2004 I just took her for a ride around the block and she ran better this time that the last time. Damn she is a screamer, I can't wait to get the other gears on it. She will be freaky, Oh wait shes already freaky..... Quote
got1banshee Posted February 18, 2004 Author Report Posted February 18, 2004 I would raise hell over that, did you already pay? I had to pay or they wouldn't let me have my bike. And I wanted my bike!!!!!!!!!!! HAHA Quote
