Take a regular pair of slip joint pliers and pull the plastic limiter cap off, underneath that plastic cap is an adjuster that you turn with a straight blade screwdriver .

How do you spend $3000 on a 650SX that doesn't need an engine rebuild and all the electronics work ?

Actually you can just flip the stock plate over and reinstall it with case sealer and it's free.

Yes with those reeds in that condition no doubt it ran like poop.

I had similar thoughts but then I realized that these are the same guys that recommend everyone that has a fuel related issue rebuild their carbs with OEM mikuni carb kits knowing full well carb kits don't come with needle and seats . There is perceived knowledge, which means you read it...

2.0 needle and seat, 80 gram popoff spring, 140-145 main jet 120 pilot jet should get you damn close.

Yep That was my thinking as well, I would be way more worried about the crankshaft seals , on skis that old I just replace them , you can also red loctite the bearings when you do it. If you are considering mods this thread is an excellent read and touches on a few of the things I already...

I wouldn't worry about the pin in the crankshaft , that issue is easily fixed by coating the bearings with a thin film of red locktite after that they will not move . Ryde it the rest of the season and rebuild it this winter, I wouldn't bother Pressure testing at this point, pull it completely...

Yep if you measure the plate it is 1/2 of the stroke added so 3mm plate = 6mm stroke

Actually it's not a press fit it's an interference fit , the two are not the same but most people think they are, the difference is in the clearance between the two parts , on a press fit the two parts are pressed together with a hydraulic press , a crankshaft pin is an example of a press fit...

looking good !

Check to see if you sucked something up into the jet pump , but yes it could have stripped the midshaft also

I doubt Hugh Freeze is up for the challenge this year but then unlike most fans I don't expect him to be, we will see what we will see.

Yeah but can you JB weld ?

Ok I do finally see it after looking through the posts several times, I would say that is excessive but I bet it was on a couch, so does it really matter ?

Yes and twelve 1/4" welds is 3 inches or twenty four 1/8" welds, I did neither , if you have a point, if make it, if not stop pulling stuff out of thin air.

On the few I have seen when the ring gear slipped on the flywheel usually there was now metal missing on the flywheel it was so loose that sleeve retainer would not have held it on , who said anything about three inches of weld , i may have run three or four small beads evenly spaced probably...

Thats what I did on the last one, tig would be better but no one is pulling the flywheel cover off to look at it.

Good eye I missed that

Have it tig welded onto the hub
