    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    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.

Full Throttle Bogging

What throttle position is rich ?
Are the filters over-oiled?

Blowerbike - Yeah, I have stock pilots in.

Mekanix - I don't think they're over oiled, I have the spray K&N oil and just misted them. But like I said, I had the bike running fine except for that flat spot around 5k rpm so I don't think it's the filters.
 
do all testing with the filters removed.
they shouldn't have affect on performance anyways if there K&N's with little to no oil.
 
seems to be all the time....although i got it a little better so at least it needs the choke to start. ( didn't need it earlier haha). It might be a little better in the higher gears ( i assume due to the main jet size being correct) I have the needle on the bottom though so it's as lean as it can get.

Bottom notch is rich
Top notch is lean
 
haha....well that would explain why it's so rich. Guess I'll try that now..:D
 
Update: put the needle at 2nd notch down (1 above what dynojet suggested), turned the pilots out 1 turn, synched the carbs and everything seems good. :D

Can't tell you guys how helpful you've been, if you're ever near NH, I'd love to go for a ride.

thanks so much
