    So I just dropped off my clutch cover to be welded and my gaskets and clutch cable have arrived. I'll be making an album soon. I'll keep you posted

    I strongly recomend having jeswinehart do your flywheel over, $50 will save you hundreds down the road, and get an intake boot while your at it, you dont want to suck air and blow it up.

    While you have it torn down make sure to check all bearings and seals in the motor. I would just get a whole kit and be done with it. That is what Im in the process of doing to mine right now but one thing leads to another and got a few things that need touched up. Take your time and do it right the first time so you dont have to do it again any time soon. Good luck
    Just sit back and chillaxx

    Ok so I got the Cover welded and the bike put back together. Needs a new kicker gear cuz the teeth are messed up and it
    Slips. Everything else is ready to go. Carb doesn't leak and everything is cleaned thoroughly.

    Ok so I know it's been about a month and a half and I was gonna part it out. The CDI box is good just had a bad ground. I got it to start first kick. Also needed another kicker gear... I'm waiting on a #260 main jet and an exhaust gasket. I can't get it to change idle. Only idles really high and worries me. Any suggestions? It was spitting fuel out of the exhaust port all over the pipe. Ps I have 116 vp gas in it

    Why were you going to part it out?

    The high idle is more than likely a vacuum leak from somewhere. Are you running the Mikuni carb? If so, check this out- http://www.3wheelerworld.com/showthr...Rev?highlight=
