[QUOTE="Trfsrfr, post: 209575, member: 3959"] Well, took the bike out for a ride today... no go. I was so hopeful. I think I'm getting close though. It feels like it rev's smooth until it hits the powerband, then it get choppy and sputtery. Did a real good plug chop on it though, but forgot a new spark plug. I haven't pulled the plug yet but I may try and get a look at it tonight...maybe. It's cold in the garage right now. If not tonight tomorrow for sure, and I am going to go and purchase some jets from the local bike shop. So couple more questions; 1 - how many other things can be causing this issue? If I got fresh gas, compression, spark, timing...what else is there? Would the reeds cause it? Or how about that fuel cut-off switch? 2 - This thing needs a chain and rear sprocket bad. My buddy Danno has some new bulk chain I can use, but where to purchase a decent but inexpensive sprocket? Steel or aluminum? [/QUOTE]
