GAWildKat Posted March 10, 2014 #1 Posted March 10, 2014 Mike and I got the bike running after 6 mons in the garage. Minus the electrical problems stated in the electrical thread we know it needs a sync, anything else we need to think about with the carb?
bongobobny Posted March 10, 2014 #2 Posted March 10, 2014 Yes, you are right Kat, they run like crap without the air cleaner on AND the top secured. They get too much air...
GAWildKat Posted March 10, 2014 Author #3 Posted March 10, 2014 That was Mike's brilliant idea, however, it wasn't running much better after he put everything back on to take it for a ride. We've confirmed the right rear carb is not working. When he did get it cranked finally, gas poured out the bottom of the bike there. What you couldn't see on the video was an annoyed husband that I was taking pics and video of everything lol. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk

Wanderer Posted March 10, 2014 #5 Posted March 10, 2014 I left a comment on your video. Make sure you have fire at all the plugs. Mine sounded like that, I was running on 3 cylinders, dead coil. I have a couple here if you need me to bring them on the 29th.
GAWildKat Posted March 10, 2014 Author #6 Posted March 10, 2014 I have plugs and wires, but replacement coils no, so please do. It also looks like the right rear float is sticking and or plugged. It truly is a project bike for us, but it will be great once we get it finished and purdy. I'll happily order new diaphragms and whatever else is needed to deal with the sticky carb. Yes Dan, seafoam will be applied this week!
bongobobny Posted March 10, 2014 #7 Posted March 10, 2014 Well heck, if he want's it to move he has to take it off the centerstand first...
