Title: So I finally got 'er running
Post by odvelasc on 03/25/09 at 18:00:35

I finally got ol' suzi running tonight. She does not bog down, however there is quite a bit of low to midrange now. Probably the UFO I installed. But yowser, pop the clutch in second and my goodness I slid back in my saddle quite a bit. Just went down from a 17.5 pilot to a 15 and still wont idle, I suspect a tad of tuning with the air screw and the idle screw. I dont have as much top end now. It definitely struggles top end. I drop from a 165 main to a 155 main on the vm carb. May have to enrichen by way of the dial a jet. Its set to medium right now. Once I get her idling and tuned, oh man this little suzi is going to be one bad mama. I can already feel soo much more power with the UFO and the dial a jet. Wont have time again until Saturday, maybe tomorrow to fix the right rear signal, and definitely gotta get used to the new drag bars.

Many Thanks go out the SV og, and SevierSavage for their tips and moral support. Its been taking a while to make progress but I work soo much right now, its hard to much done in one day. Summer here I come.

I ended up 160 main and the dial a jet on it's richest setting. Now top end feels strong too. Just roll on the throttle and it will raise the front end. Keep fine tuning, can you imagine a cam now? I'm holding at 50 mpg even after the new carb mods.
