What changes do you need to do when going to higher elevations. I know your suppost to turn in the pilot in about half a turn but what else. Change in jets? ...
At higher altitude the air is thinner. Which means you're getting too much gas for the available thinner air. Decrease the amount of fuel going to the engine....
Matt, Such is so, depending on what you are calling a move to higher elevations; if you are moving from the KNOWN stock carb jet bike living in Philadelphia PA...
Actually, "hole-ing" a piston is very unlikely. That usually happens when running too LEAN a mixture (along with incorrect timing, which is also unlikely with...

After the last oil change (and replacement of the old gaskets on the right side with liquid gasket), the shifter does not spring back to center when I shift...
I have a CM400A that is running very rich. The carbs were re-jetted by the prevoius owner's mechanic (end of Sep). The bike gets about 40 mpg, but I'm seeing...

You may get lucky. The very first thing to look at when these bikes start running too rich is the air filter element. If it's garbaged up, it will definitely...

Hi , yes you can adjust you air/fuel , on the botton ,on the eng side of you carbs , there is a small screw , the more you screw it in , the leaer it gets ,...
