new pod filter, thin screw clamp (took two small thin ones and threaded them together), carb cleaning, new fuel lines, tank cleaning, new flter and rejet later the bike is running pretty good. More power too, this hill I could only climb at 32 before, it climbed at 35 today. Definitely it was too lean before, as all those bogging problems are pretty much gone. Weird thing, though, I seem to have lost about 2 mph on the top end, going down this straight road with a slight decline I hit 48 with the old setup but today just 46, despite the bike running better overall. Is it possible that running lean could give more power on the top end, but less at other RPM ranges? Only if the high speed mixture was a bit too rich, and what you did made the rest a-ok, but leaned out the high end mix. |
