Try this!

Buy a new spring fer the carb.
Clip about 1/3 off
put the bigger piece in the diaghram in place of original.
HANG ON!!!



OR, if ya want to skip the "buying" part, just pull out yer spring and clip er!




If this dont work then you can always put the stock spring back in or get a new one, (approx $10)

I've done this to my Rincon and several other Hondas and it makes a world of difference. Everyone says they're now "torqueyer"

Does this mod help with the thumb throttle stiffness? Mine is stiff. I mean it sounds like a stupid question, logic would tell you cutting off 1/3 of the spring would reduce the pressure. Just wondering if the difference is noticeable in that respect

Well, i did cut about a 1/3 off of the factory spring, and the lag is still there.
What is left to try now????????

I noticed the lag on mine also. First, I made the snorkle inlet larger--no noticable difference.
Next, I punched out the muffler baffle with about a 1/2" hole--seemed to help some. Finally, I punched out the baffle as large as possible (anout 1")--major improvement, with no appreciable lag. I had a concern that it would be too loud, but i don't find the minor increase in sound objectional at all. Everything else is all at factory settings. The elevation here is 4500'.

Hope that helps.
