bike running shite
ok, ive sealed all possible airleaks with quality sealer etc. new plugs, oil , leads fuel etc. my prob is when i open the throttle , say 1/8th of the way ( if that far ) the engines burbles and bogs down but if i then open it up it picks up fine. its just when i hold speen on slight throttle it does it. soundslike it on 3 cylinders but picks up fine. Any ideas guys?

Re: bike running shite
sounds like its possibly running rich causing it to bog, you cleaned the carbs not long back didnt you?

Re: bike running shite
heheheh, get the fueling sorted mate and get them balanced. Gauges only cost 40 quid max and its a few hours of your time. How you sort the fueling i dont know tho.......

well mine were 40 odd including P&P, i got them from ebay tho.
You dont need any adaptors mate, its just a nipple underneath the inlet that one of the vaccum gauge pipes slip on. See my guide in the workshop
