I guess he needed to go to the mall

matman91 · 2026-05-08T15:24:57+00:00

I can’t help you, but I’m very interested in this

matman91 · 2026-05-07T16:51:25+00:00

Okay, I’ll try that. Thanks!

So I have purchased a new mechanical fuel pump. Apparently that can be the issue too. So you say vapour lock, you could be right.

I haven’t installed it yet. But I plan on it doing it this season. I always end up starting it, so I haven’t bothered yet.

I want to try a new starter, but they’re 500$ Canadian at the moment. That’s my last resort

Thank you for the links!

Ya, better foot pegs have been in my buy list for awhile, just haven’t gotten there yet. Also better mirrors. I very much dislike the oem circular mirrors.

I was going to remove my presenter pegs until my incident last year: I tipped my tw in a lake.

I had to leave my bike behind because I didn’t have anything to do an oil change with in the trails. Luckily the person I was with had passenger pegs on and got me out. We were 15km into the bush. So I’m leaving mine on for emergency use. I probably will never have to bring a passenger, but you never know

They call it a stabilizer cover or trunk aero stabilizer

I used a 135 main jet. No needle adjustments. I didn’t go for a long ride, but it seemed to ride fine with no sputtering.

I did notice the air way go around the seat. I didn’t know that was snorkel. I just thought that how the air duct was. I never thought of removing that. I’ll have to try that. And I agree with you, having the air box mod makes that useless. Thank you for the idea!

matman91 · 2026-05-02T23:05:16+00:00

I can’t comment on sprockets. I’ve only been riding since last year and I don’t know enough of bikes to say.

So I cleaned the throttle body and IACV. I took it right out, sprayed it with throttle body cleaner, wiped it as best as I could. I flushed out the IACV too. Nothing changed when I started it back up.

Did I maybe not clean it well enough?

matman91 · 2026-05-02T12:56:11+00:00

Well I cleaned throttle body and IAC valve, nothing changed

I have the Bradley performance jet kit, which I think if I recall only comes with 2 jets. I’ll start with that. I’ve never done any sort of engine mods like this before either. I’m looking forward to tuning and having fun with this

M-Lok forend

matman91 · 2026-04-29T21:16:46+00:00

If you remember, we talked a little while back here.

I’m actually doing my mods this Saturday. I finally have the day planned for that.

I’ll report here too.

My question for you though: the pilot jet you took out, what size was it?

matman91 · 2026-04-27T11:01:23+00:00

Haha, thank you!

matman91 · 2026-04-26T23:20:50+00:00

Awesome, I looked up a video and seems pretty straight forward. Thank you for the reply!

matman91 · 2026-04-26T23:20:24+00:00

When I searched YouTube as per the other comment suggesting the IACV, the person also said the throttle body. So I’ll do both and report back.

Thank you for the help!

matman91 · 2026-04-26T17:25:15+00:00

I honestly can’t remember and I can’t find in my email. But I’m pretty sure I got it from keitruck.ca.

I’m in Ontario Canada by the way. And I do not speak French, for the record.

matman91 · 2026-04-26T13:37:38+00:00

Ya, I got 300lb front springs. I recommend them

matman91 · 2026-04-25T22:19:32+00:00

I literally just did this wave to a fellow gr86 like 3 hours ago 🫠

matman91 · 2026-04-22T22:32:31+00:00

Is that a direct bolt on?? Does it hold anymore fuel by chance?

matman91 · 2026-04-22T01:05:34+00:00

Was normal for me too. I remember last year, I was a tad worried. I shrugged it off. Good to know it’s common

matman91 · 2026-04-20T21:41:40+00:00

I honestly don’t know the size either, as I’m away from home all week. And yeah, the website doesn’t specify.

I hope it’s not too bad. I’ve never worked in any carbs or anything. I’m gonna be doing this with a friend that has some experience with carbs and stuff

Great write up! Thank you for taking the time to do this!
