warriorhoneybee Posted June 5, 2012 Share #1 Posted June 5, 2012 who lives close to me that has the gage and the knowledge to use it? I've had my bike for two years and have never had it done. of course it runs like a raped ape i think it's time to do it. I'm off on Tue and wed and can make the drive if it's fairly close. i know 1rooster has one but seems like we did he's a couple of years ago at the Lexington BBQ and i don't think he can set them but i could be wrong. thanks P.S. i live in black mountain,NC.

etcswjoe Posted June 5, 2012 Share #2 Posted June 5, 2012 I don't have a gage but I will be in your area Tuesday night/Wednesday morning was planning on doing an overnight in Spartanburg but can come over your way instead, just have to tell me a good place for us to stay. If I can find someone in the lowcountry that will let me use their gage I could do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

warriorhoneybee Posted June 13, 2012 Author Share #13 Posted June 13, 2012 well wish me luck on my first carb tune. Joe wont be here til around 15:00 so I'm gonna try to have it done before he gets here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KIC Posted June 13, 2012 Share #14 Posted June 13, 2012 That's OK. I understand not wanting a 2nd Gen to even remotely "taste" a 1st Gen. It would then develop a personality conflict of wanting to be a 1st Gen, but looking like and running slow like a 2nd Gen. Last thing we need is a slow, confused, cross-dressing 2nd Gen. It might wind up looking, and running, like a Hardly... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
etcswjoe Posted June 14, 2012 Share #15 Posted June 14, 2012 Good seeing you again and thanks for the tour. We wound up biting the bullet and got the room in Ashville. Don't know what route we will take back may do some of the Parkway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warriorhoneybee Posted June 20, 2012 Author Share #16 Posted June 20, 2012 [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ssVK3Joj03w[/ame] well this is what it looked like. if i just let it ideal i cant see them good enough to line them up. if i rev it up a little they smooth out but i thought it had to be at ideal 950-1050.
