That's correct, the 2 longer bolts go with the dowel pins. When putting in small fasteners use a smaller torque wrench, especially if using the...
a fully charged battery would be up above 12.65 and not sag much under load. Try to measure the voltage while cranking the starter to get some...
It won't charge because your battery is toast. 1. The electronic controllers for fuel injected systems can suffer major damage with...
yeah you're probably right and just need to go on back over to the hawk forum -- they can probably provide solutions for someone who asks for help...
Sounds like a loose or corroded ground wire, or a dirty contact in the starter push-button, or a weak battery. How old is your 'new' battery?...
Them Brighton boys know how to party and drink, plus how to brawl and bar-fight...i worked on a project with a team of them and had a great time....
If the engine is dying when you crack open the throttle from idle, then you either have an air leak or clogged pilot jets/ transition ports, etc....
Take a look at this excellent post on how to clean those carbs and compare to how you did it to see if you overlooked something....
Here is a great post on how to clean those carbs--compare this to how you did it to see if yours are clean....
Should be 12.8 for a fully charged lead acid, Open Circuit Voltage. 11.9 is no good. Fuel injection doesn't like to run on low voltage.
How does it run up around 6k rpm with the throttle opened up--does the problem clear up and it pulls strong? It may be too rich on the low end...
Please don't start a second thread about your carbs not working properly until you have resolved the first one--until you fix the problem we don't...
Yes they will fit.
The inlet needles are stuck open and won't shut off--the fuel pump runs and fills the bowls up and keeps running as fuel runs up above the float...
Was the bike stored or sitting up with the carbs dry (i.e. drained before storage) or wet? If wet then the fuel has turned to varnish and a carb...
i think it should run up to about the 10 o'clock postion and then the thermostat opens--you can see it drop back down a little once it opens. If...
they will stick open and run cold--makes fuel consumption go up.
Use the AC voltage scale of the meter, then connect one lead to any yellow (call it L1) and the other to another yellow (L2), then run the engine...
My $10 bet is that the carbs need cleaning and that the throttle adjust thumbscrew is turned in too far keeping the butterfly valves open so that...
