I could really use some help!!
« on: April 09, 2011, 09:00:39 AM »
So i have a 78 750k, with a 75 750 motor and carbs. I am running mac 4-2 exhaust and pods, and i can not get the bike to run the way i want it to. it idles good, but when i open the throttle it bogs for a second of two then it takes off with plenty of power. It currently has stock slow jet, 130 main and needle in the middle. it also has next to no power once its in 4th of 5th gear, just bogs and slows down.
please help ive been messing with this for a few weeks now and cant seem to figure it out. ???

Your clip should be moved up, scrap the pods and go back to the box with a K&N filter...........and move this post to the general forum for more answers..............
