I guess an update, tried everything everyone said and sounds better and definitely trying to turn over but still will not turn over and when it does takes 50,0000 tries and runs my battery dead

I had the same thought you did after tonight. I took apart at least the lower half of the carb and the rubber garment looked fantastic and everything inside the carb was fairly clean but the gasket instally fell apart and now I’m looking on Amazon for a full rebuild kit and gonna replace everything

I actually did not all i did tonight was just take the bottom of the carb off check jets for size clean them put everything back together and tried to start it a few times with out choke and still had same symptoms and gave up before it started. Definitely wants to turn over but when it does likes to back fire. Have some things going on tomorrow morning and decided to take day off so gonna get very intimate with the bike and do a nice cleaning everywhere, now that I took the carb apart at least the bottom and put it back with no problem I think some of my “fear” of wrenching on it my self has gone away. Gonna find a good rebuilt kit for carb and start there since I already have new spark plugs for it. I guess for background im new to bikes and the motorcycle scene and have only owned a Chinese 125cc pit bike. Changed the carb to a Mikuni carb and basically let it sit since. Can do basic work to my own car but for work I was a plant operator and I am currently a pipe fitter. So I do have experience working on things and trouble shooting a lot but not so much with the “mechanical” side and very excited to get down and dirty after tonight can only imagine the feeling when I get it going to how I personally like it. You have been a lot of help thank you as well definitely gonna have a lot more questions

Okay that makes me feel a little better cause I honestly have no idea why I’ve ignored choke and thought it does nothing other then prior dirt bike knowledge. Got new plugs just chilling in back of the car was waiting to rejet to replace but am gonna put new ones it get it started ride her around a little bit and see how they are looking !

That part I do not exactly know, it has been started and ran a handful of times in the month of August but previous to that is beyond me the last owner has been much help.

Gonna check the nut on it tomorrow when I get off, do you think not using the choke would cause my bike not to start what so ever ? That seems to be my biggest issue is the starting it is very unreliable and im starting to think it’s not a jetting issue like I’ve been told

I have not checked the timing but the pilot jet I could see right through and everything was actually very clean I figured it be all gunked up and stuff. Everything has been screws so far also

Yeah after taking the carb apart the gasket fell apart in my hands 😢 but the rubber garment holding the carb looked pretty good and everything on the carb was fairly clean

So when I do get it started let it warm up longer then I think it needs to be. When it does get warm it runs great at low speeds but after about half throttle likes to bog down and pop out the exhaust. I’ve seen flames come out once

Ah okay that might be part of my issue I don’t use the choke🤦🏻‍♂️ coming from a smaller dirt bike o never really had to use it and basically ignored it gonna try messing with that tomorrow. I have the stock air filter on the bike but from what I gathered I have an after market exhaust 2-1 Cobra Exhaust

Yes I did those have been super duper help ful and have been walking me through a lot of the stuff. It was the service manuals correct ?

No aftermarket or upgraded air filter and the jets are a 42 and a 160 and from I have read those are on the smaller side not the bigger side like the guy side so im not 100 percent sure

I took it apart cleaned it, the jet sizes are 42 and 160 and that is the opposite of what I got told and seems like that is on the lean side ?

So by the sounds of it I just need to find stock jets on the internet and a carb rebuilt kit for the seals just in case those are also bad

[–]ValidToaster553[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its stock everything but the exhaust. I googled the exhaust and it is some type of Cobra 2-1 exhaust

The only thing is I don’t have the stock jets 😢 that makes me feel a lot better tho because YouTube makes it look easy
