Thanks, I would also like to see the curve of the race box, as well as the injected T-bolt. Because my overall gearing will be around 3.00:1, a different curve...
I'm guessing that the cam profiles will have a great deal of influence on the timing curve. the cams in the T-bolt are the same as those in the lightning. ...
hello all. i will give this a go, i rarely post on here. i ride a 2000 M2. i have owned the bike for 3 years now and i have recently noticed some troubles....
Is it coughing thru the carb.(lean) ,or thru the pipe (rich)? Has anybody been messing with the timing? Look at your plugs, check your intake seals (spray...
thanks charlie, it is definitely coughing through the carb. i have not touched the timing at all. the plugs look just fine, not too wet, and not too white....
Have you had the carb. apart? Could be the diaphgram ,or a modified spring or hole drilled in carb slide thats to big. Another problem they had with the...
i have never had the carb apart on my bike. is it something i can do myself? i am fairly knowledgeable about these things, as i know what you mean by...
I'm better with FI bikes than with carbs, so I hope a "carb guy" will check me on this. the coughing through the carb sounds like it's lean. if it's been just...
Hey there, I'm still really new to this but it sounds a lot like our problem before we put the new breather on ours. the previous owner had put on a...
Sounds like we should stick to the easy stuff first. Take the forcewinder off and run it with no airfilter,(don't mean a long run) just warm it up good and...
Also, It's not uncommon for the intake manifold/head seals to dry out and harden into a distorted shape that allows a lean condition to develop. I've had bad...
Hey all, I hope there is someone out there that can help me. I have a '98 S3 that has an intermittent problem. The bike seems to have a problem with staying...
a guy told me about a problem like this and it ended up being his o2 sensor, which can be checked with a meter/scanalizer just a thought ... From: Edward Smith...

this could be the CA model starving problem I mentioned in another message. the tank vent in some models gets blocked, and there's no way for air to enter the...
I was going to say the same thing.. It does sound like the tank breather, or perhaps a float that's out of adjustment (more likely the vent, though). When...
... I also had a very similar problem with my first Buell, which was a 2001 blast. Thing would run fine at low speeds, but after running for a bit in the...
Thanks for all of your suggestions. When the problem first started happening, I tried opening the gas cap and it didn't seem to help the matter. I just spoke...
You know, I was going to suggest that you remove that canister (if you haven't already). I'm glad someone included that in their advise. That worthless little...
While you have the muffler off,take a torch and heat up the spot where the plug meets the muffler and with a hammer fix it where you wont have to take it off...
You know, I think I can do one better. Thanks for the idea, but I could always take the pipe to my welding class at CSM, cut a little square hole in it and...
Also check for a bent or constricted fuel hose. I had a hose that closed over time where it was set at a 90-degree angle. The bike exhibited the exact same...
what's the octane rating on the race gas? generally, high-octane race gas (around 103 or so) isn't too much of a problem if you use it occasionally. I believe...
Well guys, the info was great. i tried the WD-40 spray around the intake to no avail. i actuall called buell and told them of the troubles i was having with...
Well as I watch it snow here in Maine. I am getting ready to work on my bike. Currently a '99 S3 with super trap and KN in the bread box. I want the bread...
Thanks alot for the info on the racing gas. It's just something that I thought I might try to get so more power when I go to the drag strip. thank you, Jake...
Just your o2 senser,which in turn will screw up FI and run like crap.But it will take awhile,maybe a 1K miles or so.............Later Charlie ... From:...
