Amazing what a little maintenance will do.

My bike has been running a little sluggish the past few times I was able to ride. It felt like a spark plug had a miss in it, wasn't sure, when I would hammer down on it when running 50 to 60 it just had the shakes and lack of power. So my plan was to replace the spark plugs, but in the middle of the night last night I suddenly woke up and thought I need to sync the carbs first to see if that helps. Low and behold that fixed my issues. They weren't out by much but now you give her gas and she takes off like greased lightning. It's been about a year since the last carb sync so now I know to do it more often.

 

I really do do enjoy all the advice that I read on here about keeping our bikes up and running, it's very encouraging to know that if I need help y'all are here to help.

I have nightmares after reading stuff on here sometimes too Edbo,,,:scratchchin:,, oh wait,, thats not what you were saying:big-grin-emoticon:

 

Glad you found the source of your scoots problems.. I TOTALLY agree with you about how much better these V-4's run when in sync. Tweeks carbs have gotten worn enough that syncing em out at every oil change has become a normal part of lifes experience with the old girl.. They are not usually way out but I like to tinker and its a always a bonding moment between the two of us - she likes to have the attention paid to her.. Also a good way to keep make sure other issues arent happening that may devulge themselves by a wacky reading on a vac gauge..

 

Good on ya bro for getting that scoot back to V-4 bliss!!
