    ok, i checked the vent hose on the dg carb, its not clogged, only has one on left side.

    I tipped the bike back on its grabbar in a wheelie position with the carb open (air filter off) and i pours gas out of the back of the carb (two little holes in the bottom rear of carb towards airbox) so its flooding not running out of gas in a wheelie.

    can i adjust the float or something to correct this?

    i appreciate your help and will post a sick wheelie vid when i get this issue solved!

    Those are air bleeds and they are connected to the fuel circuits, so naturally when tipped up with no running vacuum fuel will escape them.

    Maybe that carb just don't like wheelies... kinda like rockcrawling with an edelbrock carb, just don't work.

    Did you try the splash guard or are we just eliminating ideas without even trying them... long road that can be!

    I have the same problem with my stock 200x. If you're going slow and riding a wheelie, it will eventually flood out. 2nd and 3rd moving along is fine. I do have the splash guard on mine btw. (stock carb).

    I found a 200x splashguard, its smaller than the dg one so i bet it doesnt work. and yes it still leaks while running.
    It wheelies fine in 2nd and 3rd all day, wheelies are my thing if i cant do one starting in first ive got problems..

    Too bad, I had an XR carb that I blasted/rebuilt/sold about 9 months ago.
