No power pulling out

Post by sfar6100 »

When I try to pullout in first I really have to get on the throttle or the bike will die. I have to really rev it to keep it going. Carbs were cleaned and synced to the best of my ablilty. What am I missing?

Define 'really rev it.' Do you mean ~ 3k? Well, yes, you do need to rev it up to get it moving.

Do you mean 8k? In that case, something is wrong. You may have missed something in the carb clean or adjust, your clutch may need some love, your gearing may be altered higher, or the nut fastening the clip-ons to the seat may need adjustment. :whistle

Rev is to about 3 to 4. But I've read people talking about pulling forward on not much more than and idle. Even when I do get goin if I try to get on it it'll sputter a couple times before it goes.
