Re: Squeeking from front end
Oh yeah, the noise doesn't do it all of the time, it comes and goes at no particular time. But it is consistent on sharp right turns.

Squeeking from front end
While riding my bike I have noticed a pulsing squeek coming from the front end of the bike. Applying the front brake lessens the noise. And in sharp right turns the noise is very pronounced. Any ideas on what to check and how to fix? The only thing I can think of was warped rotors but the look true ...

Re: Carb cleaning question
Thanks to all of you I now have a functioning bike. I cleaned the carbs, set the floats to about 22 or 23 mm, syncronized the carbs with my home made tool thanks to the wiki, drained the old gas and cleaned the chunks of sediment out of the main line out of the gas tank. Now she is running smooth an...

Re: Carb cleaning question
Alright I think I am at my last couple of questions before I give this a shot. during the syncing process should the bike be warmed up? Also what about the choke position. One problem I do have is that the choke lever is broken on my bike and I am not sure which way is open or closed. So if anyone c...

Re: Carb cleaning question
You all have been very helpful. I went ahead and set the floats they were really low about 19 or 20 mm. I bumped them to 22 or 23. My bike does have an aftermarket exhaust and that is the only reason I can think they were set so low but the bike didn't really run well when I bought it a few days ago...

Re: Carb Tool
Is there a specific length that the clear tube going to the carbs has to be cut to? Also what type of oil do you use? And finally does the the tube going between the two bottles get completely submerged in the oil?

Re: Carb cleaning question
Will do, Thanks.
I do have another question. As far as the floats go, when they are removed do i need to reset the height? or can i just put the pin back in and they go back to the way they were?

Carb cleaning question
I am working on cleaning the carbs but I dont want to worry about resyncing them and all that jazz. I was wondering if I just pulled the caps off each end and cleaned the body real good and the main and starter jets would I still have to sync them?
Let me know,
Thanks

Re: Few problems please help!!!
thanks for the help. It looks like I have the correct play in the clutch, maybe I'll investigate what you told me.
As far as ignition being the issue I have searched that here and only came up with a few unrelated results. Do you happen to have any good threads you know of?
Thanks again
