Platinum Boarder Posts: 1985 Re:waxed by small bikes help please 7 Years ago   I agree with Fishead. Your bike should be able to stomp all over some of the bikes you mentioned.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #348698 fishhead (User) Expert Boarder Posts: 500 Re:waxed by small bikes help please 7 Years ago   andygca get more info on the carb jetting. The carb guru's will need it to help you out. My set-up is a little different with the Max Flo airbox.   Logged     [img size=150][/img]   The administrator has disabled public write access. #348701 Fire ResQ (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 353 Re:waxed by small bikes help please 7 Years ago   Andygca, I had a silimar setup. 2003 (1600cc), BUB Big Willys, Baron BAK, ported manifold, jetted carb, 31T pulley. It would smoke the rear tire easily. I have a buddy who rides a VMAX. I couldn't keep up with him, but earned respect for keeping it close. I agree with others, with your mods, you should be running stronger than that.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #348702 Darn (User) Don't forget, Never forget. Platinum Boarder Posts: 8679 Re:waxed by small bikes help please 7 Years ago   I have an 07 1700 Silverado and I've NEVER been left feeling that this bike doesn't have enough power to at least keep up. I have stock air box with a K&N air filter, not a BAK, stock exhaust drilled out to stage 1, never touched the carb. Getting ready to put in a Barnett clutch spring to keep it from slipping when I twist the throttle, but I keep up just fine.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access.
