    Buying and Selling

    I am thinking some kind of extra step where you have to verify through your e-mail basically like when you sign up on a website you are sent a link you have to click on before you can post to the website, in this case it is before posting something up for sale, that could be automated and take...

    SXR stock carbs and intake

    if they are mounted sideways they will not work, you can't convert parallel carbs to work in line without changing the throttle shafts and you would have to have the appropriate linkages , the carbs I used are off of a 657 Seadoo GTX if they are not set up like the carbs below they will not work...

    650/X-2 Best carb for 650sx

    It could be as simple as bad spark plug wires really all we are doing is guessing here, you would have to take some ohm and AC voltage readings both cold and after it starts acting up to determine what is failing, a spark checker might also be a wise investment . I have also seen stators get...

    So I know this does not look like much but the amount of time and effort to get here was ridiculous. The frame has been cut down in both height and width, so four pieces total, since it is not square on one side you have that funky angle to deal with as well, which requires another couple of...

    650/X-2 Best carb for 650sx

    I am going to show my age here just a bit but I am old enough to remember 28mm carbs being installed on Professional freestyle skis back in the day, why because they gave a wide linear powerband with no hicckups or surprises, back when freestyle was hood tricks, log rolls and Australian...

    650/X-2 Best carb for 650sx

    Whatever, 28 carbs are junk and 44 carbs are too much for a 650SX , are there any more people with opinions that don't mean anything in the real world, if so lets hear them.

    28 carbs are not junk and I think you will find when you replace that carb that your problem is still there, but hey I have only been doing this since 1986 so what do I know.

    That counld be aq bad needle in the carb not seating or it could be a bad CDI- coil, run it and when it starts acting up turn the fuel knob to off, does it start to run better and pickup before it runs out of fuel, if it does it's the carb that needs help , if it doesn't it's probably the CDI -...

    Epoxy!?

    Dylan is right I have had epoxied mounts come loose like that before, a couple layers of cloth over them and they will hold., doesn't even have to be carbon fiber, you want more surface area for better bonding , think of it like it's a wood joint you are gluing up.

    650/X-2 Best carb for 650sx

    I can't help you from that description, is it revving and not going anywhere or is it not revving ? If is revving then the carb is doing it's job and the pump is not sealed or the impeller is damaged or both. If it is not revving that could be either carb, reeds, ignition or low compression.
