has anybody else had somewhat of a hesitation when you get on the gas? Haven't noticed it before. What could it be from? It might just be that I don't have the RPM's high enough. What do you guys think

I haven't noticed a bogging, but I did stall it out a few times trying to get rolling while it was still a bit cold.........JIM

I would look at the air filter first. Then make sure you have the freeplay adjusted correctly on the throttle cable. Those little Orings on the fuel line quick connect can cause some weirdness too. If your revs weren't high enough it would have killed.
As you get hours on your 'dale it will get progressively easier to ride. At least on mine it has.

Air restriction or fuel delivery problem. Make sure your air filter is good and clean and check or replace that o ring on the fuel line, also replace your fuel filter if it hasn't been done in over 5 hours.

The only time ive had trouble with my cannibal bogging was when I was ready to go ride jabbed the throttle a lil bit and you could here the engine sucking for air and it cut off and died, but I havent had that problem since then.

not yet, I haven't had time to fix yet. in fact I don't even know if it is still doing it. I did take out the play in the throttle today, tomorrow when I get home from work I will do a full diagnoses (air filter, O ring, excetra) "forgive the spelling". Anyway I will find out tomorrow I will keep ya posted. By the way how long does it take to get a silencer, and a remap from R&S? "ballpark fig." I will be sending in my computer next week to get the remap to the moto.

R&S turned my computer around in one day plus they had the HMF silencers in stock. Can't ask for any better service than that![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
You might just call them to make sure they have the silencers in stock before you send off your computer.
