Hey guys i have a little "problem". It did happen before and i checked the timing right yesterday. It wont go over 8000 rpm and it stalls there with my throttle at 3/4 in 5 gear. If i pull the throttle more it starts to idle high, makes sounds like its at its higherst rpm. I should check the pulsar sensors if it makes any difference. I saw the 2-3 magnetic sensor on my pulsar its 1-2 mm off.

What do you say guys? I don't want to dissasamble everything for nothing.

BTW : Everything is clean, sparks, carbs (syncronized), etc. The only thing is that tiny sensor.

Thank you for your time !

I just looked over your posts and didn't see anything about re-jetting your carbs. From the pictures I can see you've got high-flow filters and virtually no exhaust. Between these to you are going to- be on a very lean fuel/air mix without new jets. Check out this thread for more info:

So you are right. I run a bit lean, my sparks are white 80% and a bit of grey here and there. So the problem you think it is are my jets? I did 3 turns on my carb. a/f mixture screw (from above) because i was running leaner. I will check my pulsar also. What jets should i get? Should i just raise my niddle? I will test different things anyways with this. Thank you sir !

The most popular place seems to be http://www.dynojet.com/jetkits/. I have a Stage 3 jet kit on the way for my gs550 right now.

Ok, i made myself with a drill (did this things many times before) a 1.3 mm hole (main jet). The ratio of fuel is much greater than before...i took a ride along with a screwdriver for adjusting the a/f screw. I took it from 1 - the engine accelerate by itself and dies, at 2 the engine makes like before, at 2.5 like before but better acceleration, at 3 and 4 it starts to make like before at half throttle.

Should i lower the needle? My spark plugs are black now (before were white). Can someone tell me a good setup on these carbs with my main jet ? What should i try. Thank you !

BTW : found out what its called "bogging engine". It bogs, thats the word ...but my sparkplugs are black now.

Ok...SOLVED ! i took out those f***ed up air filters....and it goes 11000 all the way, it pulls like a monster. Jesus...i didn't belive those THIN THIN THIN air filters were such a pain in the a**.

Thank you guys, i will take a spark out to see later when it cools down ...hope i help someone else :

My carb config:
-no air filters
-1.3 mm hole in main jet
-2.5 on a/f screw
-needle position is stock...didnt mess with that

It PULLS AND PULLS AND PULLS !
