The wheel looks like it moves, but I checked and it is true. The wheel bearings are tight. The reason I think its the bushings is because when I hold the front brake and give it gas it looks like the entire motor shifts forward and up . I don't remember the 50 I had doing this.

The wheel seems tight, I had it off to check it and made sure to tighten it down. All the bolts are tight. Shock brackets are good. What are the chances the bushings are bad?

This is a random question, but has anyone had a bad wobble that feels like the rear wheel is out of true? Checked the wheel and it seems straight. Thinking it might be the motor mount bushings letting everything move around more than it should. Any ideas?

I used some slightly heavier sliders in mine. It made a noticeable difference. Everything I have read said that is the best bang for the buck upgrade you can do.

That sounds about like what I thought. I ride in a rural area with very few stops so I think that would be a good way to go. Thanks form the input.

So , been looking at the performance clutch springs and thinking about swapping those out when I replace the belt. Not sure what to try first but it seems these work some what like the torque converter on an auto transmission in a car. Any input on which ones to try first? Thinking the 1.5k will work well with the 12 g sliders I ordered.

Maybe water or trash in the gas? Just a guess but I would run some sea foam through it just to see.

Thanks, i will try the 115 first. Got the kit for a little more than a single jet and figured it would be good to have for when I increase displacement.

Oh, and does anyone have a suggestion on what size jet to try first? I got a kit that runs from 115-135 and not sure what size to try first.

Got it running today. Not entirely sure if it was something in the new carb or something in the top of the engine that was wrong. Just waiting on the after market exhaust, new master cylinder, 12 g :-) sliders, aftermarket filter and jet kit to get here to get it on the road. Thanks for all the help! Not sure if anyone would like info on the bike and mods, but if so let me know and I should have info by the middle of next week.

Will do, thanks. The owners manual says .005, which isn't what I see recommended here. Any idea why it would say that?

I only paid $29 for the carb, which was about the same price as the cheaper ones I found. I bough it not running, but actually got it to run this afternoon. Will only idal for a couple minutes then dies. Won't run more than quarter throtle either. Hoping just needs carb adjusments
