    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.

I`m struggling with my -82 1100 to rev above 4.500 rpm. to be more accurate , it rev up to redline if I rev up slowly, but if I rev up more rapidly it starves and will not pass 4.500 rpm.
I`m using the origin BS34SS carbs, and have tried the most from main jet 125 and up to 145.
It runs very well up to 4.500 rpm and goes right in the wall with starving symptoms.
My jet needles are not to adjust, only with a plastic shim.
Idle and low rpm are very good.

Engine: Pods
G2 Web cams
10,5 - 1 comp.
4-1 exhaust

Any good experience out there ? Please advice :-)

You should get real pods, either K&N or the equivalent.
Then you should get a DJ 3133 Kit
Then you should get 47.5 pilot jets
Then you should install the DJ 3133 with 47.5 pilots and either the DJ138's Or if you have them MK 130-132.5

Follow the directions for install and then don't do anything else till you get the main correct; rev to redline. At that point go back to teh needle.

There are some recent threads, were I have posted on very close to the same configuration.
