    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Just finished a carb cleaning and rebuild. My red bike was running way too rich- the problem from what I can tell were the rubber plugs for the pilot jets- they were shriveled and not sealing, so I replaced them with a set from Z1 Enterprises. I had added a K&N OEM replacement filter, so I thought I'd try the DJ Stage 1 kit- it is recommended for either a K&N stock replacement, pods, or a high performance exhaust.

I used the Harbor Freight ultrasonic cleaner that has been posted elsewhere on the forum. The carbs were also cleaned per the step-by-step instructions elsewhere on the forum. I also used new orings from cycleoring.com- highly recommend.

The worst part of the job were the snap rings in the slides. I used a small pair of needle nose pliers to get them in and out. I used the default clip settings and the recommended 114 jets- stock were 115. The instructions call for the drilling of the small hole in the slides, so I did this.

After getting everything back together, I bench synched them and reinstalled them. They worked far better than before, and the power level was improved in the mid and top range- but they were messed up so it was not much of a benchmark to start with. I need to run a tank of gas through to see how well the mileage does.
