Alrighty....I'll start tinkering with the screws when it gets a tad warmer out. Thanks Gents.
Yea, I figured that. :redface: So I just follow what IC suggested? With the motor warm I turn one of the idle screws (on any carb in...
Well you can see in the 1st video there are 2 fluctuating bars. The carb tune seems to have a mind of it's own. I dint recall seeing anything...
I hope that's close cause that's the closest I can get it :tongue: I didn't notice any difference in the bikes performance....idle is the...
Yup...Gear Driven Cams for sure. I noticed a bug difference hoping off my VF500 and onto my 2nd Gen. Everything just looks and feels...
Is that a centre stand I see? I call dibs in the unlikely event you decide to part that bad boy out. My advice is to focus one trying to get it...
Ahhh! Got it! Thanks for the coles-notes, dukie. :wink:
Wow....i lost you about half way. :tongue:

LOL.....funny you say that cause that is exactly what I did after my last post. :tongue: So yea....Bike is at temp...set everything up and...

Wow....looks great. The tire clears the swingarm and the chainguard?

There was an inexpensive ignition switch on Ebay....complete with key. Can't find it anymore. Good luck with the bike. Check the valvetrain and...
For $300....go for it. You can easily get your money back in parts if you choose not to fix it up and get it running.
Hahaha.....yeah. You have no idea the patience I am showing while I try and figure out this bike while my buddy (who now owns my old VF500) is...
Odd.....so you just tightened the bolt?
Got it. Thanks IC. I still have yet to see how the bike will respond to the 2 1/2 turns out position that I set it to last....weather has been...
Yeah....mine is the opposite. I need to crack the throttle to start the bike when cold. When the engine is at temp it starts without issue.
