Haven't done much on this recently because it's too darn cold. I put some seafoam in it that I got for free from work to hopefully break up some of the carbon build up that I'm sure is in the cylinder. It makes it smoke pretty bad but I'm just telling myself its all the nasty stuff getting pulled out
It isn't putting out any black smoke, just the normal bluish white stuff, even on hard throttle, so I might be able to get away with running an even larger jet? Will have to try at some point!
The main issue I have right now is that the old, old belt can't handle the incredible power I have now and is slipping on even the lightest touch of the throttle. Whenever I decide to get a new belt I'll have to get a couple extra hands to make sure I get it tensioned very well because I'm tired of doing it over and over :roll:
Also pretty sure the voltage regulator is dead. I had replaced the headlight and then went down a hill to fast and it blew out. Starting to think it might be easier to replace the whole headlight assembly that uses an easier to source bulb. The speedo doesn't work anymore so it don't need to be anything fancy. Also need to look into fixing the horn. Oh and I should probably fix the front brake at some point :lol:
