It was more like a motocross bike the only reason I can't Identify it cause who ever had it painted it all blue it only had headlight and brake light but I remember it was an 86 is what was on title Sent from my Z812 using Tapatalk

I'm not sure to be honest it was jacked high and I had to kinda hop on it to get it to set low enough to reach the ground flat footed Sent from my Z812 using Tapatalk

No not you cowpuc lol by the nice singing voice in that thread I read the Apples and oranges wrong no after seeing your tire and it's the same Metzler's on mine I like the look of some shinkos but I was trying to find the venoms and pricing and was seeing more threads about shinkos I just recently got comfortable riding the big ol 1200 the biggest bike I ever road was the yamahammer 350 fast bugger with racing reeds racing clutch and smaller sprocket on the rear laid it down once trying to avoid tree lol got in a groove and made the mistake of trying to force it out Sent from my Z812 using Tapatalk

I didn't mean to offend if I did I'm just saying I have tried to teach my older boy this principle You get what you pay for... IE meaning he got 40 dollar tires for his car and within a month one of them shredded and Walmart wouldnt live up to there Road Hazard Warranty... trying to say he used 30% of his tread or something anyways I just would be leary of buying a cheap tire for anything in general I know everyone will be entitled to there opinions but it seems SHINKO is a much talked about tire.. seen somewhere someone said something about putting a narrower tire on the front end of 1st Gen that they turned better etc...

Thats the total reason I dont carry cash I have a bad habit of losing the big bills and it isn't cause the ol lady took it...

After looking at @cowpuc post realizing my tire is identical to the one he has in a picture made me look at mine and I have Metzler's on front and back of my bike and getting down on the ground taken closer look after spotting the name to think the night I got my bike running again long story short I was in triple digits with a crack running all around my tire on the rear and the front is starting to develope and finding out last night more on date codes that my tires are going on 8 yrs old well um yeh I'm in market for tires but I'm funny when it comes to tires I will not buy the cheapest but rather go with known good brand... So I guess I will do a vote on ppl experience with different brands and the ones with the most recommended I will run with Sent from my Z812 using Tapatalk

Ok so I went out to Marie and was looking thru some things and pulled the diaphragm out to check it out it was setting in there nicely just a shame i got to pull the carbs may do that later tonight and disamble all of them but that is the same carb I'm Getting all the sputtering from she does good when she is cool but the minute she gets warm she spits and sputters till I'm over the 3000 rpm mark... Kinda aggravating due to the fact that I just spent $600 dollars getting them rebuilt and had to turn around and replace a diaphragm and the fact I am running two fuel filters to be on the safe side or so I thought drained gas out of tank it all came out nice and clean so next is to pull the sending unit and pet cock out just to have a look see and replace the filters.. probably just put one back on but one of the fuel filters I have that i got the last time has a new design its fatter so probably won't be able to use it. What do others generally run on their bikes.

tire date codes ok so i dont have to make video

Um @bongobobny is this gonna be Venture Discovery Channel LMAO Im gonna make a video about finding the date code on a tire and what they mean lol:rotf:I message bongo last night because I was concerned about date codes on tires i did searches and well its probably there somewhere in the forum so googled it and found out that my tires being 3508 and 4508 the guy had receipts with the bike that showed he just bought them in January 2013 i believe that is the date the rear one he had just installed the day before i bought it and the front one he had replaced the year before. so when i bought this bike in February of 2015 the tires were out of date which I didn't know about date codes and all that and I would have replaced them this past year if I had known more but that is more to my project bike to get fixed but very useful information to know.

I don't believe I will try that never did on the Yamahammer 350 I had when I was younger Someone painted it Blue and painted that name on but it was a fun little dirt Bike. Which is a reason I said wouldn't recommend leaning it over like that its not so bad getting from 90 degrees on the crashbar but from crashbar on up it sucks lol thats when you feel the weight.

Evedently there was more wrong with my TCI box then ever thought because i could put the bike in gear with the kickstand down. Now when I put it in gear with the kickstand down it automatically kills the bike also i had it running earlier just to do a lean test with assistance we leaned her all the way over and she shut down which i tipped it over once trying to go out of my driveway around someone and caught the front tire just right and there was just no catching her and she stayed running when that happened sorry to ramble on my forum but these are discovery's I'm making I wouldn't recommend leaning her over tho... But knowing my bike is doing the things it is supposed to do after replacing a TCI Not realizing just how much they control things.. like safety features.. also something else i was able to do with the Old Tci was engage the starter with the bike in gear with kickstand down.

Absolutely not the problem Got to pull the Carbs:bang head::bang head: And one more thing when you relocate the box on top of the airbox which literally puts it next to the radio is it common to lose your radio signal? Not a real big deal as most radio stations are ruined these days so i usually just plug my phone into auxillary but just curious if thats one of the downfalls

Absolutely Beautiful Bike that is a nice Blue :clap2: Very Nice

UMM what happens when you have spare parts to the air box on a table the reason i ask and i forgot to mention is the bike only idles and runs funky once its warmed up... so say someone forgot to put the funny looking doohicky on a line that runs down from airbox to the ground and the other piece is made to hold the boots to the carbs just curious if this would have any affect on it ooooo and the air filter is still setting on a chair in the garage? just curious because i know motorcycles love tight airboxes i found these issues as i was getting ready to pull the airbox and pull the carbs...

Yeh I have been dealing with the dash or over a year but first time i seen the temp gauge act like a pressure gauge sometimes when i was in the throttle it would wave up and when i would let off it would go down it was about the goofiest thing i seen it do Im gonna take pictures of the Print board and take everything off and clean it up and reassemble it unless this guy comes off his print board high on flee bay.... i bet it will be there when tax season gets here and ill message him and make offer of what i would be willing to pay cause i do understand you cant get a new one no more but what he wants is a little high in my opinion and im sure the temp gauge has got a lose wire somewhere the way it acts...

Being shot don't sound like a good dream....

No wonder I cant seem to find parts bikes there all in your garage and when i spot one or two parts before i can get the money together its sold i bet there all in his garage from flee bay or however you all call it...

Your Walmart too wow i was loving getting oil for 5 bux a quart now I am paying closer to 10

Ok just an update On what I did today I took the bike to Nevada Mo after thinking it was fixed Twice I noticed the Tach jumped from 4000 rpm to 5400 or so and it was shortly after hitting a bump in the road or something like that But My Instrument cluster is all Haywire anyways like the volts according to Multi Meter are 12.5 on battery while idling until it stumbles some.. Now when I rev it to 3500 rpm I get 13.9 volts all the while my meter on the dash is like stuck up there the temperature gauge is all twacky dont even know what to call what it does reminds me more of a hydralics gauge the dash goes off and on as it pleases the only thing accurate on there is the lights and the speedometer and for the most part the Tachometer... as for the 150 mile road trip after i filled up in Nevada the Bike seem to run a bit better but i would say that my carbs need pulled again and cleaned up and real good being i just had it rebuilt in April so there should be all new parts in there and maybe when i put all the tubes on maybe i got something in them so i will do that over the next few days in no big hurry cause its not a fun job the real part I hate is putting the thing back together cause of the snorkal tube on the airbox Im gonna assume that its number 3 and 4 carbs due to the fact when i got it back they had quite a few parts lose on them.. but will clean them all because im conviced now more then anything it is a jet issue as far the stumbling because it is running just like it did before i did all the work over a year ago and probably pull the tank and check the petcock and the tank and go ahead and change out my fuel filter while I am at it and one thing I will have to do is break down and buy new spark plug wires and new caps... hopefully that will be the end of it but i only pulled 25 mpg on the way up there... and i was averaging 65-70 MPH on a pretty level interstate hardly any hills.. and anything below 3000 rpm she is not liking at the moment.. Ok i do have one question and im sure its been asked due to where the fuel filter is I tried moving it before and ended up rubbing a hole in a fuel line is there any easier place to put the fuel filter so i aint got to remove the end and tank of this bike i would love to have that thing handy so i can change it every few months

I will call them later on Sent from my Z812 using Tapatalk

Yeh well it was sent after I seen that igniter for our ventures until I pulled mine out and seen it was the wrong one Sent from my Z812 using Tapatalk

I will add one more thing those diaphragms being new are ***** to get in and to seat right so i may pull it out since its had some heat to it now maybe be more flexible..

Glad to hear you all seem to think Carbs... Because I was starting to think TCI issue the number 4 slide appears a little shaky but I wasn't sure if it would cause the stumble.. but yesterday before i took this Video I did get two spits from #1 Carb which is the one with Brand New Slide Diaphragm

As far as the carbs go they were just cleaned and rebuilt and I just replaced one of the Diaphragms after I got it from the shop the slide devoloped a crack and well when i pulled the cover off there it was in 3 pieces inside the carb so it wasnt moving and that is when I discovered my MotionPRo SyncPro was a one use model... Not really but my opinion there junk cause thats all i got out of it and the first one didnt work at all.... so figured I will order the Carbtune one because im sure there out of Sync the deal with the Carbs was I took them off and took them to the shop to be done to save $300 so I dont know if there is a true way to Sync them on the Bench...
