Thanks. "digital tachometer inductive" did the trick. Previously I was searching for a handheld tool rather than a bolt-on hour-meter type thing,...
I used to balance the carbs on my Triumph Trophy 900 every 7000 km. If I left it to 10,000 km I could feel more vibration at cruising revs, and...
Thanks all, I do have the FSM but the article I saw had some pretty pictures. :D The first time I did it on this bike, the tank was off anyway. I...
Does anyone have a link to the web page that shows how to synchronise / balance the carbs on a 4th gen, wihtout removing the fuel tank? I found...
No, he has a shorter tyre. 180/55 is about 1% smaller diameter/circumference than the original 170/60…in theory. Might not even be that if it is...
Where are you getting the 520 rear sprocket? I’d be keen to go to a 520. Modern 520 is more than sufficient for this bike.
Looks like an air bagger.
Mmmm bugger. Sounds like the wear is not readily fixable.
There's some comment on FactoryPro's web site about needle tip damage. http://www.factorypro.com/tech/needle1.html Says it could be from the...
I would assume the slide guides are worn, because it's a bearing surface. What did you measure the wear as? See...
It'll definitely be rich at small throttle openings because the jet needles have worn (and then been smoothed) to a smaller diameter, and the...
That's only the rough guide to get the bike to run when the carbs are assembled. From there it needs to be fine tuned. The service manual details...
The height is measured from the top surface of the fork tube down to the top of the oil, with the forks fully compressed. I don't have the...
Mixture adjustment affects the revs for a given throttle opening. Changing one carb independently can affect the whole engine: indeed that's how...
Do you mean mL rather than mm? Is it bottoming out? If so, you may not have enough oil. Oil height is critical to the performance of the fork,...
I've never had a vehicle - be it Jap, Euro, bike or car - with different keys, so in my experience that is the norm.
I think it's worth it, just be prepared to do it properly (I also need to check the torque value). Quite a bit of coolant came out of the front...
Awesome! Thank you. I was using the handbook that came with the bike. And yes, the service manual does say 2.3 + 0.3 L. It seems every time I...
That's why I'm asking. The KTMs have a bleed screw on the head to remove the air pocket, and another on the radiator without the cap. But this...
Yes, singular on the 4th Gen. I followed the book procedure.
Separate names with a comma.
