Oh I see thats pretty straight forward. I got a question a little off topic but when you measure the resistance of the ignition coils...

Gotcha. So as I understand it regulator has three wires, green to ground, black from power source and red black is sensing wire. How...

Oh and does anyone know if the 4ohm single output coils off of mikes xs are a good replacement? I'm thinking this carb problem might...

Hey tstidham, where did you score your regulator at? I'm having a hard time finding one with the tail

I havent checked the compression with a gauge as I would have to buy but I've kick started it from cold conditions and hot conditions...

Here's the setup I'm running now, stock air system. Wanted to get a baseline so I eliminated all potential problems. I did the light...

Alright fellas I am in need of some advice as I have reached something that has stumped me. All this started with h pipe and pods, fresh...

Limped it into work but didn't have much time to tinker with it. Really is a struggle to get this bike to 35mph lol. Went ahead and...

Yeah you aren't wrong tstidham it is a lost art. I had a similar experience as child rebuilding carbs for my dad on an 80s suburban lol...

Cap you were right again. I started heading back to the original configuration and kept getting warmer, sprinkled a little bit of...

Alright I'll give it a closer look this afternoon. When I rebuilt the carbs I replaced butterfly shaft seals while I had them off...

Had some time today to get a little work done on the bike so here's an update for yall. Carbs bench synced with feeler gauge so should...

Thanks capt I will keep that in mind moving forward. Been kind of all over the place sourcing quality parts

Yeah that looks like the one I've got. Unfortunately I went through a local yamaha dealer and paid through the nose for two of them...

I thought that was your write up tstidham. Here's the one I got off a seller on ebay. Claims it worked when taken off the bike but we...

Alright gentlemen yall deserve an update so here it is. Rode it to work a couple days in a row to see what else would shake out and...

Oh also, anybody got an old tachometer cable laying around they'd be willing to part with? Mikesxs carries them but they are 25 bucks...

Hey yall first post in the lounge so go easy on me lol. I wanted to start this conversation because I've seen many posts about charging...

Done done and done. Runs like a top now, kicks over real easy and the electric start turns over immediately. Thanks to everyone who gave...

oh I wanted to ask about the tachometer as well. The old valve cover that I inherited has the tach cable stilll attached while the one...

okay I will knock this out tomorrow afternoon. Question though, when I got the bike I went ahead and checked all the timing related...

Alright capt chrome, did as you suggested with the mixture screws. Fired up and ran without choke, adjusted idle by screwing the idle...

Awesome, I'll get that squared away tomorrow and then go on the first ride. Can't believe how it sounds with the stock pipe too...

Yeah that was gonna be the next thing to check. If im understanding this correct, the idle mixture controls each carbs mix individually...

Carbs clean and ...success! Battery was dead so I had to Kickstart it. Runs pretty alright with the choke wide open but when I close the...
