Hang out there, we may flame, but we don't hate.

My attitude is in serious need of readjustment, and I'm ok with that.

I'm still debating on that damn sticker :icon_confused:  you kept the right hand side so mounting the can on the left hand side the sticker should be on the inside :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:  When ya getting yours on??   I set off my GF's car alarm when I revved a little next to it :laugh: :laugh:  I love the sound :thumb: :thumb:

I gotta wait until my lunchbox is delivered by the guy I bought it from. I would ask what jets you have, but I just realized you have the older, 2 circuit carbs, and I have the 3...

Cool........I think I'm almost done for a little while with upgrades :laugh:  I just want to paint that back wheel and do something headlight wise :thumb: :thumb:  Although if JamesG puts out some Solo Tails soon I'm goin for that.............And I'm kinda looking for a spare engine to start working on................  I'm dumping way too much money into this bike :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:   On the plus side some guy in parking lot told me he'd give me 2k for it :o :o  I told him i couldn't part with it right now :icon_rolleyes:
Hell that's about what I have invested so far :o

Yup I'm running 150's and 40 pilots :o :o  It's still rich so it's goin to my mechanic for final tuning tommorow......I hate messing with the air screws :icon_confused:  I'm afraid I'm gonna lean it out too much and f%$k something up when I let it WOT  in the middle of nowhere :laugh: :laugh: :icon_rolleyes:

Yeah  Srinaths damn holes are drilled a little off :2guns: :2guns:  So I have the choice of straight up, turned out, or tire scorching :laugh: :laugh:  Thanks  So far I've had 3 people come up to me asking about it when I pull into parking lots in the last day :thumb: :thumb:

Just drill some new holes, eh?

Nope she would have actually gone in reverse if I did that, instead of it just seeming like it :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

150 mains 40 pilots :o  I played with the air screws a little and got it just right :thumb:  no hanging no popping :thumb:

dude - are you running 150's with a k&n drop in and slip on (reading from your posts here and your sig)?  if so, that sounds real rich - sounds closer to lunchbox/pods and full system.

spc

yup 150's   it's not all that rich :dunno_white:  It runs pretty damn solid now :thumb: :thumb   Pulls from about 4k all the way too about 10.5k :icon_twisted:
I'd rather be rich and waste gas than run lean and burn out a piston :dunno_white:

spc

OK......everything is running smooth(er) now.....it's actually pretty solid, just a tad rich. Aside from getting the air screws right all the mechanic did was remove the washers that I just put under the needle :laugh: :laugh:  he said with jets that big all I'm doing is dumping a shaZam! ton of gas into it in the low end :thumb:  he told me to ride the 150's and if I get less than 50mpg hwy go down to 145 or 147.5 and it should get the mileage back to reasonable :thumb:  Filled it up today took just shy of 2 gallons and I've ridden about 90 miles in town :thumb:  So I think I'll probably keep it where it is :thumb: :thumb:
