i think i might be missing a clamp on a boot. so that might be one of the problems
i finally got my bike running. i got some laps in and everything was fine until after a while my bike started to revv high automatically. i was told it might need the second return throttle cable. would this be the problem?!?
To be clear, the throttle should work and return perfectly to idle without coaxing or hesitation WITHOUT the "B" (return) cable. Once you have it working properly you can add back the B cable for safety sake. It should make no difference to a properly set up throttle. Its there as a failsafe, not as a part of a proper throttle.
as your bike warms, you'll need to turn your idle down.+1 on the air leaks, and probably not your return cable or spring.ensure all carb boots, to engine and to airbox, are not cracked, are on correctly, and sealed tightly.
I politely disagree.after riding my bike to operating temp, and lowering my slides to an optimal idle, i cannot (even on my 350F) start my bike cold the next day, without using both the choke(closing butterflys) AND raising my slides with the idle set screw. (then my choke goes off and my idle set screw is adjusted back to good idle.if you can, id like to know how you do it.
