Yeah, lack of backpressure is likely a contributing cause, but it should be curable with jetting and needle shims and alot of experimentation.
Connections in red plug atop starter relay need careful inspection too after it's unplugged. i hope Honda sacked a bunch of guys in the...
Relay is trouble-prone and superfluous, unneeded, useless baggage.
I think it's very doubtful that carb setting on your bike are causinmg high heat; far more likely a cooling system issue likie bad thermostat, bad...
Not easy to find a tach sensitive to 50 rpm + or - but idle drop procedure as outlined in FSM is the way to go. As an alternative, try this: with...
Could be a problem with the steering head bearings. If too loose or worn out (anything after 30,000 miles is suspect) front end shakes under...
Most of the ebay ones will work but they're awkward to fit cuz the high-current terminals are reversed compared with the original. Be sure your...

Cars will continue to run the electrik fan if engine temps are high, but bikes DO NOT. Ignition off, fan will be off too.
Leaky float needle/s........more likely than sticking float. Don't run the bike if oil is diluted with fuel !
Almost always the bikes i've seen are set at #3. It does work, i believe, but not so well. Works best if you have fresh, clean fork oil.
Connect black and blue/black wires at the relay plug, tape it up, and ride. After the bike sits for a day, you should hear the pump clicking as...

The knocking noise you describe usually proceeds a nasty engine disintegration.......unless it's another, different noise.
I thjink i have a semi-brilliant idea that will work: remove tank and turn it upside down, letting it sit for a few minutes. The reason cap...
