Put carbs back on....hooked everything up...turned on gas...stuck float or something...gas pouring out of drain (yes it was tight)

Took carbs back off and fixed that issue. Re-installed again. Bike started right up as always. Was hiccupping again. When giving the bike throttle it kept bogging down. Didnt seem as isolated to left side but the left carb did seem to hiccup while the other side didnt.

While looking at the bike and cussing I noticed a little piece of black sticking out around top left carb...CRAP...the diaphragm is not seated right (STUPID MISTAKE). I will take the carbs back off again tommorow and fix that. I figure it still will not run right so I am taking it to the shop on Saturday.

Oates that offer still stands if you are interested....

I am REALLY tired of messing with this.


2003 Red and Black Speedy. What do I want to change on my bike next????

I'm making some calls and shooting some messages to the techs on the forum that are in my area. I'll give you a shout.
