    Help, sj suddenly shut down

    Checked battery connections, start stop switch, all connectors, did compression check (170 psi cold in each cylinder) and borescoped both cylinders and they look clean with no scoring on pistons or walls I guess I'll have to see if it does it again

    Now that I think about it, I have my high speeds set on the rich side on purpose So I can't imagine it would be a lean seizure

    Help, sj suddenly shut down

    And also priming it could have been a coincidence, it's possible it would have started if I tried cranking it again, I just thought it sounded like it wasn't cranking right

    Help, sj suddenly shut down

    Yeah but like I said earlier, riding 4 days a week and almost always going wot I've never had this So why would it leaning seize all of a sudden and then run great Is it possible to have a slight lean seize and not cause any damage? Which is why it ran mint afterwards?

    Should I buy rickter

    Pipe is bpipe, electronics I don't know without pulling ebox, ride plate is and intake grate look stock (for a rickter I guess) But yeah if it's not worth it if I can't fw flip it then I'd just get another sj for the time being

    Should I buy rickter

    Maybe it is a Novi, its possible I just didn't see it. Stock flame arrestor Still strange to have a single carb, unless po took off carbs and threw what they had on it to sell it, a buddy of mine bought it and called me knowing I was interested If I don't buy it he'll just resell it but gave me...

    Should I buy rickter

    That's what I thought, can't imagine with a single 46 that it could get enough fuel on the top end, not that I care about top end but certainly will go wot from time to time

    Surfriding Wetsuit Thread. (good/bad love/hate)

    I'd go medium, I'm 5'9" about 155 and a medium is good. I've been told the size differences only refer to width from my surf shop, the length is more or less the same I used to use a large when I didn't have my new one yet and it was cold, too big and you could feel the water pockets
