#1022439 rginsbtx (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 126 Re:Need Jetting assist 5 Months, 1 Week ago   I currently have parts on order. It might be 2 weeks before I can get to it again. I have been getting GREAT Advice. Thanks Again   Logged     2005 Road Star Silverado Midnight Star   The administrator has disabled public write access. #1022441 saszeus (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 99 Re:Need Jetting assist 5 Months, 1 Week ago   I will give this a try today when I am headed home, how would one tell what the RPMs are with out a Tach? During lunch today I pulled the enricher out a little bit but the bike would not stay idling while sitting there, I took off and it was like the bike had to sneeze or hick-up before it was driving right. this is that kind of bubble thing I was describing, after it did that then it was driving ok, yet I still have the popping. Thanks for the help Skwear. steve   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #1022443 SKWEARpeg (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 12885 Re:Need Jetting assist 5 Months, 1 Week ago   Try a google search for Road Star 900 rpms, and see if a YouTube by JD shows up, and you can also search the forum, by using the Search Forum in the blue banner above.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #1022494 saszeus (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 99 Re:Need Jetting assist 5 Months, 1 Week ago   well, I did raise the idle a little bit and pulled the enricher out 1/2 way out this morning and there was no more popping. I will start looking for a vacuum leak.   Logged     Last Edit: 2017/09/19 08:16 By saszeus.     The administrator has disabled public write access. #1024875 rginsbtx (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 126 Re:Need Jetting assist 3 Months, 3 Weeks ago   I have had it running on a stand for a couple of weeks while I cleaned and polished her up. SKWEARpeg and davej, you guys are AWESOME. And to anyone else THANKS! I followed all advice and this runs awesome. As for the decel pop, very little now and only under very hard decel. Thanks Again!

Thanks   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #1024963 saszeus (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 99 Re:Need Jetting assist 3 Months, 2 Weeks ago   RG The decel popping you said is still there just not as bad? I cleaned my air filter which is part of the barons big air and replaced plugs which minimized the popping but like yours it's still there just not as bad. I don't know what started all of this but it has been a little frustrating over time Does your bike have like a hiccup on occasion when taking off, it really feels as if a bubble pops then the bike will run fine? I am wondering if I need to try to adjust the carb but doing that I may be a little out of my element, I don't even think I would know where to start. I don't know why a bike would run just fine for so long then start doing this. thanks steve   Logged     Last Edit: 2017/11/06 09:57 By saszeus.     The administrator has disabled public write access. #1024964 SKWEARpeg (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 12885 Re:Need Jetting assist 3 Months, 2 Weeks ago   saszeus wrote: RG The decel popping you said is still there just not as bad?

I’d also take a look at the exhaust gaskets. The torque may have decreased after the first few hot and cold cycles, or somebody may have used something other then the Yamaha OEM exhaust gaskets.   Logged     Last Edit: 2017/11/06 09:55 By SKWEARpeg.     The administrator has disabled public write access. #1024965 saszeus (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 99 Re:Need Jetting assist 3 Months, 2 Weeks ago   SKWEAR Do you think that would also cause the little hesitation when taking off? It's almost like a bloop noise, it does not always do it but will try to just stall just a bit then take off like normal, while riding everything is fine with acceleration. steve   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #1024970 SKWEARpeg (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 12885 Re:Need Jetting assist 3 Months, 2 Weeks ago   Make sure your idle is close to 900rpms, as well as checking the other stuff. Yes, it can cause that if there is a leak. The throttle plate is closed, and the vacuum in the manifold is as high as it will get then. It only gets greater, when you close the throttle and use the motor to slow the bike down. That causes the vacuum to spike enough to pull extra fuel through the Coasting Enricher circuit. If the exhaust gaskets are leaking, it introduces oxygen into the pipes right at the head, and the fresh air can combust any unburned fuel in the exhaust. Which is how the AIS works, when it is still installed on the bike.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access.
