    For example im cruising along at 100kmh in 6th at around 6k rpm, full throttle; no acceleration. Down to 5th at around 7k rpm still nothing. Down to 4th at around 8k rpm and im suddenly doing 140kmh. And i only get 100kms out of a tank.

    Im starting to think its the fueling too, unfortunately absolutely nothing about carb setups.

    You need help, from someone who does.

    Thumbs up

    I agree wiyh Drew, with those tyga pipes pipe you have on there you need to start with jetn down down 1 size on the mains, standard is 270-280, go down to 260-270, you may also need to lean out the needle by dropping it a notch. but remember 1 adjustment at a time, start with the mains by the sounds of you symptoms. A manual is worth is weight in gold...& while those carbs are off check the other jets arnt blocked & check your fuel levels as per manual. I know it sounds like a pain in the ass but when they are running right i guarantee you will have a grin from ear to ear

    Im in Addington. I took the carbs and pipes as a pair off another bike and had thought they would had been jetted correctly, but they probably havent.

    I'm sure I've got some jets here for the factory carbs, I'll have a dig about.

    So it has Tyga pipes on it? If it does you'll probably want to start looking out for an RS250 SAPC instead of the 22D30.

    Yup for sure... I've got the tricky dicky timing light to check the compensation delay and all that jazz when you first install it, just sing out.

    I have no idea what the pipes are; there are no brands or codes stamped into them.


    Yeah i might get a zeeltronic box, but after i sort out its running issue.

    Yeah, one thing at a time. The Aprilia thing is to cure a cough that Tyga equipped bikes sometimes suffer from as they have a slightly different PV opening time.

    Do you have a 22D30? That'd be the first thing to sort after your chop.
