part of the choke broke off inside the carb and for the life of me i cant get it out, Ive tried to drill it out but just ended up messing up the threads. I figure minas well just find a new or used carb instead of spending more time getting angry!</end quote></div>

You could always upgrade to an aftermarket bigger carb. It will probably set you back a good $150 though.... By the time its said and done.

 

Randy did you get the correct jetting for the 32mm carb yet? And CheapCycle just didnt finish updating the site, I culdve ordered over the phone, but im just gonna order over Babbitts since the prices are about the same.
Also is there any liquid I can safely put in the motor to make sure there are no leaks? It will not be run in the motor, I just want to make sure I sealed the crankcase covers enough, I dont wanna put oil in and have it start leaking out.

 

No, not yet. I got the needle-jet done. I'll have to measure it again to know what I ended up drilling it to. I've drilled the main close to .1 so far. I think I need a bit more, but its been so long since I've done any riding its tough to say. Putting around is all I've done lately. Maybe by this weekend....

I was gonna ask if you called them and what they said. I forgot about babbits. I had rockymountain price match them once.

I used kerosene to check for leaks once. But it doesn't mean it won't leak once the oil is under pressure. Diesel should work too. Don't use gas. Take the spark plug out too, just in case.

 

Yea I kno what you mean, ive been pretty lazy too. But Ill check rockymountain, and thanks 4 the tip.

 

Well, not just lazy... Been sick and spending too much time dealing with the economy and that Paulson plan.

Rockymountain won't have OEM parts though.

 

Oh, I see, and hah yea I noticed, so I just ordered them off Babbitts. Great, now I have to wait till like 2 weeks...how funnn

 

Is Babbits that slow?

 

Haha yea, it says Oct 15th or 16th, BikeBandit was a little slow when I ordered about a year or 2 ago.

 

Bikebandit is slow. Everytime. Maybe they're faster to someone on the west coast, but always slow to me. Rockymountain is pretty fast though. Amazon is insanely fast!

 

Yea theyre both slow, n im on the East Coast, but Amazon is fast, but no OEM parts :-\, but still very useful
