Hell YEAH!! thats is awesome news bro! You get your carbs sorted??

YES FINALLY!!!!! Lol. My guess is that the new carbs I got were set up for a different bore spacing so I just ended up using an old carb I had. I was put off from using it the first time around because it had a broken float tower but I JB welded it on a day or two ago and let it sit so they should be all ready to go. Can't wait to hear it purr. Actually its gonna GROWL beceause the exhaust needs to be fully welded. It has a bunch of holes and **** where the PPO had new mufflers welded up in place of the megaphones

[TheCafeKid]

the jets the same size?? Dont be upset if it doesnt want to run right without the pipes on it. Backpressure is bound to be all facked up with the megs off. but it should still start and whatnot. You shouldn't have to do much to the carbs to get it to run right however..maybe some tweaking on the adjustment screws. You have a manometer at the ready?

[Ironriot]

Yeah I don't expect it to be a 100% right but I doubt there's much difference from these new mufflers and the megaphones. Nothing the idle air screw can't fix. I'm gonna take it too a shop cuz I can't justify buying a manometer right now. Besides when they sync em all eveything should be taken care off

[Ironriot]

Oh and no the jets aren't the same size. I put in the ones from my old carbs into the new ones that I used

[TheCafeKid]

Good call on both counts. I installed my centerstand today..then found i would have a problem with it clearing the chain. So im going to have to have a stop welded on it. But at least i can use it for now to get the bike off the ground to work on it. Im going to have to pull the rear wheel off i guess to get that rotor and what not off, so it will come in handy.

[Ironriot]

Yeah centerstands are unbelieveably handy. When I was pulling my bike apart there was no way I would've been able to do alot of the work by myself without the centerstand

[TheCafeKid]

now if i could get some cooperative weather id be happy

[Ironriot]

Whats the weather looking like up there? Down here its like 85 degrees for most of the day. It gets to 90 at noon though. Perfect riding weather.... Now if only the bike was done

[TheCafeKid]

well let see... snowed about 4 inches the other day..now they are calling for freezing rain...so no good

[Ironriot]

Fvck...... I guess Winter has set in already for other parts of the country. That sucks...... DUDE...... fvck me. I just remembered that I need the O-rings for the fuel tubes. Can't believe I forgot about them till right now

[TheCafeKid]

What fueltubes? I dunno how those CVs hook up..

[TheCafeKid]

sorry..lol watchin the Ultimate Fighter finale...love UFC..

[Ironriot]

What fueltubes? I dunno how those CVs hook up..

CVs hook up with fuel tubes that connect them all together. Fuel flows into the two center carb's bowls through a single tube that joins them together. From there they flow into the outer two carbs through more fuel tubes. All these tubes have o-rings to prevent leaks

[TheCafeKid]

oh you're talkin bout the fuel rail tubes...My VMs have em too, they are aluminum instead of rubber tho, and they also have orings in them. I think Robert has em too...
