Yeah, like most have said, it sounds like I've got a fuel issue going on. I'll have to check things over and possibly adjust the carb.
That line in a carb overflow ventline. It doesn't connect to anything but it will mist. I run mine to the bottom of the bike between the motor and trans
Wow - I doubt mine would get through 9 starts. Guess I have some troubleshooting to do.
No reason to charge at 14v some of the newer AGM 14V for prolonged periods of time will cook the battery. 13.5-13.6 is about all you need. The high quality float chargers are Max 13.4 - 13.5 for that reason
What Choke? We don't have a choke.
The enrichener. Maybe I'm using the wrong term.
Same difference. Gets more gas than air...
You're right about "More Gas than Air". Enricher unblocks a passage that dumps fuel in carb and is more efficient than the butterfly choke application. Choke creates more vacuum and therefore more fuel.
I didn't either, just found it interesting that dentdudes was charging so high and made me curious.. I'm from the automotive field where 13.5 give or take is almost perfect charging, on bikes I've always had about 12.5 or so at idle and about 13.5 while moving.. just didn't know if maybe these were different and needed a higher voltage due to the high performance engine
Having to enrich the bike for every start and not actually riding it will make the plugs foul (what you are seeing). If you can get it running and turn the enricher off, it should clean off the plugs going for a short ride. Its best to check your plugs after riding to get an accurate determination of what is happening in your engine.
No baffels and cone air cleaner , these engines do not do well with no baffels and the cone air cleaner can be an issue depending on its a installed position too jmo.
