    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

i rebuilt my carbs, pod filters and full length open exhaust. the bike didnt run when i got it, bad ign box. the box has been replaced and i now have spark. the problem is, when you reassemble a bike, what do you do? just set the carbs at factory settings and boom! it just fires up? i cant get it to go at all.

so if you were starting from scratch how would you know what to do to get it running for the first time? man i am lost.

i have a jet kit on the way, i just dont want to slap it in guessing what settings to have in it and expect it to fire right up. i need it to at least idle so i can have somewhere to start from!

thanks guys.. any help is greatly appreciated and any stories about your own experiences would help a lot i am sure..

i feel like such a rookie!
 
the two cylinders that do fire seem to be fouling a little (blackened plugs) and the other two seem to just be a little wet? this would leave me to believe that the bike is getting too much fuel... but how is that possible if i just put on pods and open exhaust? you would think it would be getting too much air and not enough fuel....

when i spray carb cleaner into it, it fires off just for a sec.
 
i need a good complex drawing of the way our carbs work and what/how it all happens...... but i still dont know where to start!
 
good news!!!! it works. i got it running!!!! sounds good too
tomorrow i will test drive it and see what happens
