  3. If you're free one night this week and can road trip your carbs to Wilmington I'll tear them down and clean them for you. I'll even show you what little I know about cleaning carbs.

  4. Apparently Asians are not good at placing ads. I would suggest you consider putting a price on it, maybe a few pics.

  5. Depends on if they are in the kitchen. If she is in the kitchen then he is right, this is only possible because of the kitchen rule. If she is not in the kitchen and has a pass he is right. If he is in the kitchen it's plausible depending on the % of error. Now, if they are both out of the kitchen he is wrong, and she is wrong for not being in the kitchen, since 2 wrongs make a right she is still right.

  6. Well I'd hope you had more miles than me in the last since I only owned it for about 20 days of th last 365

  7. If you've been inside a carb once or twice, no reason to get it professionally done. Get an exploded fiche diagram of the parts and how they go together. Keep track of the hard and 'soft' parts in separate bags for each carb. If possible, try to NOT disassemble the carb bodies from each other and from the carb rack; you'll have a much easier time putting everything back together and syncing the linkages. (I got this advice from an old racer/mechanic at Western Hills Honda, and I figure he knows more than me.) A rebuild kit shouldn't be too much--maybe $25-30 each carb--unless you need to replace the diaphragms (if they're CV carbs) as these typically don't come with the rebuild kit. Pine Sol makes a great soak for the metal parts, and try to find a small ultrasonic bath to clean the parts like the jets with very fine orifices. Depending on how many miles are on the bike, the main jet needles may be worn from vibration--they're soft metal--and those and the main needle seat will need replacing. The pilot jets (small ones) are more crucial to smooth running than you may think; they are critical for fueling response at lower RPMs and to throttle input up to about 1/4 throttle, so make sure they are perfectly clean. Another fairly important tuning tip is to ensure the fuel level in the bowl is set correctly. You'll need to bend the tang on the float than controls fuel shot-off to get this set correctly. Fuel level in the bowl is typically set to just below the lip of the bowl, but can vary based on engine model and aftermarket tune, i.e. air box and exhaust mods.

  14. Seat before removing and count turns, clean and seat when reinstalling, then turn back out same number as counted in fist step. DO NOT seat them hard, turn until it stops gently! this will give a good starting point.

  15. I set the poll so everyone can see who voted. I am with you, one person one vote...elections matter....right or wrong we are a Democracy(technically a Representative Republic)....plus the two ruling parties have far too much power as it is....there are a host of reasons.

  18. Thanks for the video! I like all of these perspectives. I looked at the chest mount kit and wondered if it would be high enough to see most of the road in front of the bike and not be blocked by the tank. I hear a lot of good things on the Ram steering stem mount, I may look into that too. My plan is to have a couple different mounting points, so I can move the camera around during a ride.

  19. I've tried a few mounting options. Bicycle Handlebar mount to crash cage: Ram Mount To Steering Stem (Need a longer Ram Mount Arm): Chest Mount (My favorite Mounting, Very Comfortable):

  23. No easy answers, but I agree with their instructor. If an active shooter comes into the room I don't think pissing them off more is really relevant, they are already there to kill you. But I question the logic of teaching this to a 6 year old. 11, yea that starts to make sense. But again there is no answer for every situation and child. It's like the MSF course, the beginner class teaches you rules to follow...but we all can poke major holes in their rules with our experience...situations where their rule is wrong. This is the same, it isn't rules to follow, it is a way of thinking.
