what do you mean pm's where I ride there is a lot of loose gravel am I just blazing the tires causing it to just over rev?[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

 

he means your private messages on the forum.

 

I had a V until I managed to hit a fixed object in the back yard.

I had the same problem with mine. The air/fuel mixture screws are out of adjustment. They came this way from the factory for some reason. Look at the carbs from the right hand side of the machine and you will see a gold screw on each carb, angled down at about a 45 degree angle. I believe we backed mine out 3/4 turn and that pretty much took care of it. I added another 1/4 turn about a week later and it was never a problem again.

 

LEP7MM, how bad a wreck could you have in a back yard?

 

where would I find my pm's on the forums page or is this it.

 

brnunn,

I hit a patch of ice under some snow and went sideways into a tree at 10 mph. Doesn't seem like much but because it hit the tree dead center on the primary clutch, it busted the clutch cover, bent the clutch, bent the crank shaft, shoved the motor an inch to the left in the frame(new frame needed), and busted a mounting tab for the front fenders. All of this = TOTAL LOSS.

I just got a call from the guy who already bought it at a salvage auction. Don't know what he paid.

 

OMG!!!!!!!! Your lucky to be alive!!!!!!!! BENT THE CRANK!!!!!!!!!!! WOW!!!!!!! Gives me an idea of how much energy is in a 10MPH crash. Like the Earnhart crash, it just did not look that bad to me. Sucks I was wrong.

 

has any one ever hit the rev limiter and at what rpm should it kick in ? and just what were you on to loose control at 10mphs ???[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

 

teamwasted you find you PMs right below where it says "Today's New Topics" at the top of the Forums, it will say something like "no new message(s)" if you have 0 pms or it will tell you how many you do have if any.

 

thanks I figuered it out after I left that reply do you have any advice for me on my rev limiter ? also If I up grade my cdi will It change where it kicks in
