[QUOTE="badseed, post: 190087, member: 2846"] No, I haven't replaced anything in the carb yet....wanted to make sure I was on the right track first.... I took the carb completely apart, soaked it over night, sprayed all passages and jets with carb cleaner(with the little red tube the can came with) and then again with my air compressor, and re-assembled it...and it made no change in the way it ran....had someone tell me go one size smaller on the pilot jet....so before buying the carb kit or a smaller pilot jet I figured I'd pop in here for a 2nd opinion first :wink: my local bike shop here in Michigan has that same rebuild kit for $28 (in stock)...However, I gave it a real good cleaning and with someone telling me go one size smaller on the pilot jet I wanted that 2nd opinion before I bought the rebuild kit with the same size jets in it....the silencer repacking is already on my list of things to buy was just waiting on the 2nd opinion and I was planning to buy everything at the same time... for $28 I guess that's my best bet to start with....then I'll go from there..... Thanks for the reply and the warm welcome to the forum :thumb: I'm going to go grab the rebuild kit and I'll post the results once It's rebuilt and test ridden.....(if all goes well I'll have an update by tomorrow night).... Thanks again!!! [/QUOTE]
