    Paint how to thread

    So I want to talk a bit about what I think went wrong on this paintjob, while I can't say 100% for sure my best guess is that even though I used lacquer paint over lacquer primer , lacquer never really fully cures or it does so very slowly, it also shrinks quite a lot when it cures , lacquer is...

    Quick and dirty starter circuit testing Yamaha 500-650-701-760-800-1200 etc etc

    On a Yamaha you are going to have to break open the electrical box , yeah I know it sucks just do it , next unplug the positive wire coming off the starter relay that goes to the fuse , with the battery hooked up touch the bullet connector to the battery post on the solenoid , if it starts bad...

    Paint how to thread

    I finished sanding it today and was able to get 99% of it done with the DA but that comes at a cost , DA's are flat take off a lot of paint quickly and they tend to flatten things out , I knew it would be minor and that I could probably get it straightened out in high build primer so I went...

    It looks like it handles just like a wetbike, if you have never ridden one prepare to do a lot of swimming.

    Not getting full power and has some bog

    Unless the ignition is way off backfiring is usually a sign of a lean condition , if it is running lean it won't make full power. The 32T raider - Waveventure engine is something I have a lot of time tuning for different setups. Running lean would also explain your bogging condition , are the...

    701 Starting Problem

    Remove the plugs, spin it over , does any fuel mist come out, if so it's flooded , spin it over with the plugs out till it clears out , put the plugs back in, turn the gas to off , hold the throttle wide open , spin it over till it starts , if it does start it's time to find out why it's...

    Wetjet Intake Manifold

    I saw the prototypes at the Mastercraft factory when I went there for Mastercraft school but I changed jobs and went back to the Kawi -Polaris stealership right after the skis hit the showroom so I never got to work on them, I think I have worked on a total of one over all these years , they...

    Not getting full power and has some bog

    I had one doing this on a Kawasaki TS before, broken wires as Big Kahuna said , it got progressively worse as it got hotter . I took a razor and opened the wires up to have a look inside , in a section about 12 inches long it was broken in more than ten places. Stock plug wires are crap from...

    Not getting full power and has some bog

    So your argument is that 3 points of octane fixed your bogging issue ?

    550sx to 750 "All or Nothing" build

    One more thing Spraymax is now doing paint in limited colors it is 2k paint in a spray can the same as their clearcoat and primers , you smash the bottom piece on the can to mix it and then spray , for small jobs it should work really well , their primers and clearcoats are also top notch ...
