Rear Cylinder firing off??? and RPM's slow to fall

[Doc]

First time ever tearing into carbs, cleaning carbs, etc... I've never been exposed to this before and was grateful for the help. I'm not surprised that I may have missed or muffed something up. thank you again for trying to correct this for me.

No worries brother. I told you... all part of the deal.

I bet this would have been easier if the was a local shop that would let you work on your bike in there space. Hum.... maybe someone should open one up. Doc

Let me guess you got it from DOC

I just got Nuethunder (from DOC) running like a top last night.

Not Timing, Just carbs.
Make sure you good good flow from all ports. Gas sitting around for a year can easily plug up things.
Clear jets
Clear Carb filters
Smooth action on the float bowl. Before buttoning it up.
A/F 2.5 turns out
E clip in the middle on the needle
Make sure the diaphragm is correctly seated! You will have to push up the diaphragm from the needle side so the diaphragm rubber in concave. Make sure the rubber lip is completely in the groove all the way around.
8"-9" diaphragm spring!

I wish a little carb cleaning was all the world needed to be RIGHT

All you had to say was see #28


Great job. Now button it up and get on it.

always knew DOC would work better under pressure (of friendly ridicule)

u DOC

[Doc]

For the record I showed Jason how to work the carbs ONCE and only once. (My bad)

He missed some stuff. I found it. Case closed.

My Mother hit me ONCE ..... ONCE

so what doc said up above. now that the carbs are cleaned the right way, its good to go. rear cylinder is firing great, starts up so much easier now and rpm's drop like they should.

spent the day trying to button everything up. changed the oil, doc fixed/cleaned the carbs, fit the tail and tail support was fabbed up quickly by me. checked the front brakes and bled again, bought some stuff for the front number plate, and lastly, got it out of doc's hawk shop and dropped it off at my wife's friends place to have the rear frame tab welded for the rearset.

track-bound in 4 days

what my hawk looks like, almost all buttoned up when I dropped it off tonight.

Very cool...can't wait to see it at the track
