my first post. i might be all over the place sorry in advanced.. ok so i got this bike used. put it all back together, started up great runs great at idle and even WOT until it gets to a certain RPM then it just bogs out, even if i give just a little gas. i thought i was running lean, so i checked for air leaks. found i was leaking air through the intake manifold.(would only run when choked) so fixed that air leak. no need to choke it now to run. idles smooth. has good power until that rpm gets a little high, its not starting at a real high RPM either i dont have a tach but id say 3/4 of what it should be doing. i moved the clip up a few notches each time it didnt fix the problem.. just messed with the lower end of the rpms. cleaned carb and jet all that good stuff. ....
so this is where i am now. thanks for still reading if you are. this is my real question and situation,... i was running around right under the RPM where is starts to bog when all of a sudden i have a lot of power and this thing starts to move. hit about 35 mph i was moving and no BOG! i went to turn down my street and slowed down and it was running really bad now, i looked down and my intake manifold was broken... moved the choke up a little bit to keep it running and babied it home. SO any suggestions? am i starving for air at those high RPMS? or what? i dont know if the intake manifold broke before or during the burst of awesome power haha. the new intake manifold is in the mail so i cant ride it yet, any advice or feedback would be great. thanks for reading
