Ok guys yes I am taking about the mixture screw under the front of the carb. Since I have it apart I might as well pull the cap off. I think mine is running rich also plug is wet but I need to check WOT before I jump the gun here. The BIG question is Alley you told me to remove one of the fuel filters, I agree. But I was up all night thinking WHERE should the filter be? BEFORE the fuel pump or AFTER the fuel pump which is where I mounted mine before I found the factory one. What do you guys think or does it matter. Mike where did you get the plastic to make the hatch, could you post a picture?

Good idea Alley, what would you do about the carb plug? Should I bother or are they close? I am at sea level

So I will take off the factory filter mine is better. Will also do the golf tee thing. Can I just put another tee in and take the tied line and hook it up ? Would it hurt anything? I will see how it runs and if need be pull cap off mixture screw or you think I should just do it now being apart already,opinion? Also Mike I do remember my head in there!! I think I will do that, make another hatch like you did that WOULD make it easy to work on both. With all these HATCHS I feel like I am in the Navy, LOL I will keep you guys posted and as soon as I take the rear deck off I will get you photo's of the rear axle.

 Last one This is the vac line that is tee'ed off coming off the mainfold in the 2nd picture. I am not sure about the choke side but I have changed nothing yet other then adding a fuel filter. I didn't see the other one in the photo one if that is what it is. Is it ok to leave the two in if thats a filter? After you guys look at this and determine if its right I will pull carb and drill mixture cap put it back together and adjust and see how idle works. If you need addition info let me know. I wish I could get the hang to this photo stuff. Thanks Guys |

 Ok guys bear with me on the photo's. Before I start checking for vac leaks let me make sure everything is hooked up right. This looks like a fuel filter to me. It came with the bike is it? |

Thanks guys I will check for leaks and raise the idle and check the mixture. Will have to drill the plug on the carb. Mike I already have a access hole above the carb from the factory but to still get to the air box and unbolt it I need to have smaller hands or something, tight. Alley I already put a tach on I remember you telling me that awhile back and had it waiting before the bike got here and ready to go, good info guys. I will keep you posted

What should I do about that? I also notice in the moringing it just don't start up. I have to give it gas a few times. How do you know if choke is working other then having juice? Any tricks for air filter?

Quick question idle keeps changing what would do that? Have to adjust every day. I have put a tach on so I can see it. Sometimes it drops and stalls,try to keep it at 1500 like book says. Also is there a easy way to get the air filter out?

Rides good have about 50 miles. Trunk makes noise waiting for damaged parts to be replaced. Been so hot down hear can't enjoy it. Have to ride in evening. Will put the windshield on when the new cowl comes in. Will send more pictures of axle when I take the rear deck off, also damaged. Had it up to 60 gps corrected to 57. How long to break in. I don't baby it just like the race cars.
