I am just happy to give some of what I learned from these great folks back.

As for a pub, the last time I did the MS150, my buddies and I hit every one from here to La Grange. We finished day one just ahead of a roller blader. We used him as our guide. Everytime the roller blader went by the bar, we finished our beers and got back on our bicycles. At least until the next bar. We even met some bikers that had a house on the route a ways up. They told us to stop by and have a beer on our way. When we got there, they had gone out and brought back a case of the beer we were drinking and had it on ice! Those guys were cool, good ol' boys.


sorry for the diversion...

ROFLMAO
When you are in there to adjust the valves, check the chain tentioners for ware. That could actually be the problem with the clatter. How many miles on this bike of yours?

[Meikol2]

You know Thaz, that is not something I checked when I did my adjustment. I do have a little clatter still. I will have to check it out, thanks.


keeping track of who gets the beer is getting harder all the time...

[ThAzKat]

I don't drink beer so you can have mine. Beer is fatning lol

Dude, you definetly have a one track mind...but Michelob Ultra? better than a soda!

[ThAzKat]

Better to be on one track than many I always say!! lol

[Black_peter]

Guinness, me men Guinness..
It does a body good!

Indeed I'll check the chain, thanks for the heads up. I'm showing 20K miles. I'm betting service was a bit lacking.

Black_peter, so what ended up being the issue while syncing the 1/2 and 3/4 carbs? Mine is doing the exact same thing, the idle raises really high when I try to sync the two together. I had one carb that was REALLY out of sync, but when I synced them up, the idle just goes out of hand...

[Black_peter]

I had a clogged fuel /air jet.
I was able to remove the jet I suspected and blast
it with carb cleaner. All has been well since.
Removing the carbs is pretty easy and blasting the
F/A jet and some of the other passages even if you don't disassemble the carbs is woth the effort.
