Tightened my spokes today.
One was just spinning and wouldn't tighten, had to hold the spoke in vice grips in order to turn the nipple.

Well I haven't done much to my bike. Tons of other projects and I have just been riding my sons bike.

But I did get my powervalve back together this weekend. It was really nasty and caboned up. Took over an hour to get all.cleaned up etc. . I'll try to get the barrel back on etc. No huge rush

Don't confuse your carburetor circuits.
Most of what riders term as "rich or fat" characteristics are a result of the jet needle's part of the circuit.
The jet needle controls the transition from low throttle setting to mid-range.
The main jet doesn't have much effect until you are at 3/8 throttle turn, and doesn't come into it's real area of control until 1/2 throttle.
If you are still "fat" with the NECW, then I would suggest raising the needle clip one groove to see the effect.

Thanks for the the reply Jim :) I have since posted in another thread with results from my ride on Monday, If you'd care to take a look I'd be interested in your feedback :cool:

Don't get me started on carb circuits, I've been dicking around with jetting, emulsions, power valves, iab's, mab's, ifr's and a truck load of other crap with a 1050 Dominator carb on my 800hp car running E85 for the last 12+months........I may have it nearly sorted though, but it has worn me down :(

The needle position won't matter when you are at Wide Open Throttle. That's strictly main jet territory; well, that and air flow through the filter.

Good luck and let us know how it goes with the smaller main jet.

I spent a couple of days looking at all the different types of Hand guards, it all got too confusing so I bought a $35 pair off Scambay, they actually fitted up pretty good :)

Bought a litre of Penrite for the gearbox, I run the 10w-40 in my road bike and I like it.

The full syn 10W-40 is currently on sale for less than $40 for 6L.

Where at please brother?


Pulled MY AXP skid plate and moved one of the mounts and drilled a 19mm hole to gain access to the drain plug. Life's too short to be removing the bashplate everytime I change oil :o It also doubles as an awesome drain hole :D


Yeah, I'm rougher than hessian undies :D

I have just tried this as well.It's Australian made but seems to work!;)
Gasser clutches can be sensitive to different oils but no problems so far.
