Chris.QCR 7,641 Report post Posted October 21, 2018 Shakedown kms are going well. Sorted lighting issue out. Just sorted front brake issue. Next is to play around with front sprocket ratios as I feel like im only hitting 90km top end and it doesnt sound like its revving very high. Will remove the 17t I fitted and try the 15t that came with the motor. I feel its the big 2.75 Tyres that are sucking my top end Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BLIZZO 2,198 Report post Posted October 21, 2018 Hot tip, get some old spanners in the size you need for your wheel nuts (in my case it’s 19mm rear and 17mm front) and cut one end off and grind the stub into a tyre lever https://imgur.com/a/L405qVV 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris.QCR 7,641 Report post Posted October 21, 2018 Im just gonna carry all of the tools to be honest. Scored a 15t and 16t from one of the Rumblers and will road test in the morning Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BLIZZO 2,198 Report post Posted October 22, 2018 i have been struggling with the chinese VM22 on the 140 getting an off idle stutter out, said fuck it this morning and dropped $160 clams on a genuine VM26-606 Mikuni, excited to see how this transforms the engine, everyone says they are the best carbs for the YX140s 8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris.QCR 7,641 Report post Posted October 22, 2018 Shakedown rides are going well. Have settled on gearing and Blake the GC is sending me a carb that may increase my top end a bit more. Prob done a 100 trouble free Kms with nothing rattling loose. This morning I registered a new plate for the bike so will start taking to work and rack up a few hundred Km before we load up and head north in 15 days ! 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Raizer 14,630 Report post Posted October 22, 2018 You already know my thoughts on that carb Blizzo, spend a little time getting it set up and you'll love the results! None of the China carbs come close to the real deal. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MichaelJFox 1,433 Report post Posted October 23, 2018 I'll probably look into a super legit carb in a couple months, for now my 110 is happy enough it just doesn't like going from WOT for like 20 minutes to stopping and keep running haha. Also the top end feels lean and lazy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've still got a few things to sort before Ronnie gets picked up on Friday morning. I'm a little bit antsy about it. My rack required not inconsiderable alteration. It's been done by a GC. I'm going to refit it at 2:50pm today @Thphantum Do you have space in your vehicle to carry a spare 10x3 inch rear wheel for me please? Everyone I mention this to seems pretty jealous. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
