Reply #15 - 06/05/12 at 11:26:29 That's a "dynamometer", more specifically a chassis dynamometer (Dyno,for short)... not a dynojet... (dynojet, is a contraption that connects to your carb)... ... Anyway,.. I still think the idle passages are clogged...

I have a few other things to check, can't you adjust the throttle cable. To give the idle screw more slack? I'm on an 8hr long rd trip and not near my bike..

You can check that you have slack in the cable,.. but, the limiting point, off-throttle. is the throttle plate inside the carb , idle speed screw is just barely nudging it open, there should still be slack in the cable...
Good luck... Wink

Ludicrous Speed !... ... Huh

I think you have bigger problems than that.
Like Sero says, it seems the idle circuit is not working, so you are compensating for that by opening the throttle plate to hold idle R's.
And are you talking about rich/lean on idle ? Don't wory about that, because if the idle is not very near the correct mixture, it won't idle.
Any engine damage is going to come only from a heavy load at higher speeds while running lean.
From what you describe on your idle settings, are you getting anything close to a quality idle ? There is more to a normal good idle than just rpms.

Reply #20 - 06/14/12 at 07:31:16 I'm just trying to make it idle at a steady 1,100 rpm, and to do this I have to crank the idle screw in all the way.. not the idle mixture screw.. I'm not using stock jets, exhaust, air cleaner, or needle spacer.. so it's pretty modified on the carb end of things..

Youre gonna hafta go in & clean it,

Took it apart, no gunk.. wire brushed it.. CRC carb cleaned it.. I use SeaFoam regularly.. it's not dirty at all....
