I was off today and took care of a few house things and outside stuff before tackling this carburetor kit install. David put his in and I was hoping to do this with him around but he was busy out of town these past couple of days. I am definitely able to handle this but it is nice to have someone around who went through the install just in case.
It took me around 2 hours to install it and afterwards the bike started right up (after the gas filled the carb) and was running much better already. I cracked the throttle a couple of times and I could tell right away that is doing a lot better. I put it all back together and took it into the yard and just a few hundred feet on the road. This thing will definitely pick the front wheel off the road or ground now and even in 2nd gear. Don't get my wrong, I am not a wheelie kinda guy but I like the throttle response. Now I just have to be very careful!
