Nice bike, idled down way to low, but thats just me
Thanks for the compliment and yes I totally agree about the idle being low. I only did this for making a cool "potato potato" sound for entertainment purposes only.
I typically run my idle right around 900 RPM's as the Evolution oiling system really needs it. The EFI bikes can't do that due to their electronics needing all of that 13v to keep it running right LOL
I just did a 50 mile oil change and wanted to see how well balanced the flywheel assembly was and also see how low it could go yet still ramp up on throttle.
Although I didn't show this in this video im glad i did that because i ended up having to put a. 060" shim (washer) underneath the slide needle to get rid of a nagging flat spot it had between the two circuits. Seems to have eliminated that problem.
Im rockn a super e carb with an andrews e27 and screaming eagle 2 to 1. She runs really good. But idles high. The rear plug is a light shade of white but the front plug is black.. any suggestions?
