I am going to ask the forum instead of bothering Quenton, I am sure he has his handsfull after this storm!!
I recently aquired a bike with a NE5 engine. The bike idled great, but would sputter if ran above about 1/3rd throttle. It also did not have much power.
I took the engine apart and found the lifters destroyed!!!
I quickly called Quenton and he came to the rescue!!! I got his upgraded mushroom lifters, he milled the head, and cleaned up the combustion chamber, he also reworked the cylinder and replaced the valve springs.
I put everything back together with the cam advanced one tooth.
It fired right back up and idles fine. Now when I take off, it has almost zero power down low and sputters horribly until you get to about 25 mph and then it comes alive like an animal and screams!!!!!
After just running her a couple of times up and down the street, the plug is turning black.
Any ideas???
