1986/1987 mods? carb problems?
08/17/05 at 13:28:42
hey all,
I now realize that the mods nessesary for the carburetor and what not are different for the 1986/87 models. The thing is I don't know what to do. I want a aftermerket exhaust and any carb mods nessesary, so does anyone have a modded 86/87 or does anyone know what to do with these years?
I'm also having trouble sometimes where it seems the engine isn't getting enough gas. I will cruise at 15 mph but have the grip pulled back all the way with no acceleration, deeming it undrivable, but then randomly on a later attempt it'll take off. Seems to me it is the carb.
thanks for the help

You might want to try a fuel filter first you could be getting rust and stuff clogging the line/carb. That is where I started. I was having the same problem and the filter fixed it. I have an 87 and have put holes in the stock muffler, removed the air box cover and adjusted the mix screw the bike runs great. I am waiting for a screaming eagle from bobo right now it will be added later I like the sound and proformance with the holes in the stocker just want somethin smaller and better looking. 8)

I've got an '86, stock muffler (hopefully will be replaced soon), adjusted the mixture screw, removed the airbox and installed an aftermarket universal air filter out the side.
I had a similar experiance last season where I would give it gas to take off and it would be very sluggish but if I let off the gas and then gave it gas slower it would take off easily. Haven't had any issues with it since I put it back together. Of course I also had the engine rebuilt as well.
