Title: all back together no leaks but runs like dogdoo
Post by franch on 01/05/07 at 00:12:39

did the cam chain and plug cap leak as well as clutch springs.
good news no leaks (yet)
bad news it ran lousy. no power. if i give it too much gas it wants to die out. idles rough etc. top speed when easing through the throttle was like 50mph.

so i pulled things apart and noticed the crankcase breather hose split into 2 pieces where it connects to head cover. taped this up and ordered a new one.
it ran a little better after i taped it but not great.
that was thursday before i could figure out the decompression cable.

one difference is the bike starts on the very 1st crank on the button. hmmm
i hope i didn't f up the timing

sounds just like mine! was off a tooth on the timing- made a big diff!!
double check lines on cam and the slash in the inspection cap.
