    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    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.

Well if you specified:
the engine
the carbs
the intake (pods or filter)
engine mods
altitude
Jet kit?

maybe Chef will give you a good startingpoint.
 
Without all those specs that posplayer has requested, the best we can suggest is to go up 5 or 6 sizes on the main, raise the needle a bit and richen the pilot mixture a bit. :p

Well I tried but the avitar was soo small I could make out what carbbies he has. Also not even sure what bike that is? 8V or 16V?


Ok i searched his posts............

ya, ive come across some weird wire splices myself,(gs1000,79),

I would suggest starting with a DJ jet kit. if it is like a 16V you will need teh DJ needles to run right. Of course again assuming CV's
