Hi y'all just would like some thoughts on this please as my limited knowladge doesn't know what to make of it.

If I've been for a ride and the bike is warm running ok and idling ok and then I turn her off and leave her for say 15 - 20 min I start her up no choke and she dies at idle I would have to pull the choke out half to make her idle faster or hold the throttle for a while.

I could try speeding up the idle on the Milkuni long idle screw?

But just wondered if this would be normal or a issue especially with my mods?

Thanks in advance.

 

Every one is a bit different, but it seems to me you may just be a bit low on the idle speed. 950-1050 is about normal for warmed up. Mines a tad higher.

Griz

 

My high idle is 1200 (enricher out), warmed up idle is 900-1000.
So, what's is your RPM hot?

 

I wish I knew lol I have no rpm gauge

 

The turn up your idle just a bit and see if that helps.

You could mount a tach on your bike (which is what I did) or wire one in just long enough for setting your carb if you want to.

 

I would like to install a rpm gauge but one that sits at engine level I'm sure I've see this done before ?? I wouldn't want at speedo or higher level.

 

Why the hell not????
The higher you mount it the easier it is to see..

Do you have a windshield on that bike?
If so you can hide it behind the windshield. JMO

 

No windshield

Reason being is for me the bike is 100% period and to add a rpm gauge up top would maybe spoil it's period looks.

However if anyone has any pics of ones they have installed or links or whatever I would deffo reconsider if I saw one that flowed with the bike etc.

 

Like I said before you can wire one up temporarily just to set the rpms if you want to.

I mounted mine to the handlebar clamp but I don't think you would like it without the windshield.

If you want I'll get a picture of it after a while and post it up.

How easy are they to wire in? Where do the wire to?
