    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.

Ok carbs all rebuilt all new o rings including the ones between the head and carb boots now I have a stumble around 6500rpm if you get past it the it runs great was curious if the needle height is the key to eliminating this or is there something I am missing
 
Also is there a way to tell if its a lean stumble or a too rich stumble I believe it to be a to lean stumble but if I raise the needle it doesent get better should I try the stock needles?
 
Better yet anyone live in northeast pa who wants to take a crack at this I'm stumped
 
do a mid range plug chop and see what colour the plug is. that will tell you if it is to rich or to lean
 
well thats the only way to tell if it is rich or lean so it looks like you are stuck with guessing and see what happens
 
Would running it right in the rpm range before it breaks up and doing the chop test there show anything? What about all the other things I suggested no other input? Or suggestions
 
I use the choke- if nothing happens when you hit it at the stumble point- your already rich.
 
nice

nice

good idea ill try that i am thinking the main jets are too large now might drop down to the 114s if thats the case

I use the choke- if nothing happens when you hit it at the stumble point- your already rich.
 
What was the fix?
Evidently, just a lot of guessing.

fix was puting in the smaller jets that came with the dynojet kit moving the needle all the way up and removing the access door to the air box now it runs just a minuet amount rich. took a bike course with it on sunday and been riding it the past two days its great. no guessing just continual testing to achieve the correct solution
 
Thanks for coming back and posting the results. Until we saw what you did, the only thing we had to go by was a lot of guessing and questioning.

no problem it was only after alot of help form you all that i got the right answer just wish the kit had some smaller needles i am guessing this kit was designed around having pods on the bike not a k and n factory replacement
