Just finish your break in first, Sir
Here is the video. Finally got it up. When I go full throttle you can hear a short period where the engine like just cuts out then takes off.
Well I rode the bike today for a whopping 5 minutes before the motor got warm enough for the clutch cable to start sticking on me again. I finally had to push the bike with the engine engaged as fully pulled back on the clutch lever wasn't disengaging the engine think the arm slipped on the clutch cam again.
But I need some advise on tuning a Mikuni VM18 carb. Everything I find online is all scientific and measurement precise I just need to know how to tune it to get it better.
If I try to pedal start it the engine I guess tries to 4 stroke but wont run if you do get it running it stalls out pretty quick with a little throttle and releasing the clutch but that might be normal. Accelerating from a stand still you have to give a good amount of throttle and its fine but it does reach a point that it starts to feel like it lacks power and doesn't have a smooth pull.
I did get the bike up to about 15 mph not sure I want to go much more than that since I am still regaining my balance after not riding a bike in a good 20 years.
