VT250 carb issues

[328FTW]

I've changed the leads and coil twice, no dice. Cold it's better but not great. My old engine used to really haul, I took it past 140clicks easy which for a little 250 wasn't bad at all. This one at WOT will max at 110kph with a tailwind, it's one sick little turd. Just with studying I don't have time for it's shit lately, so I've been riding the GN250. The new motor will be hopefully a lot better, it's just too cold at the shop to do anything. Fiddling with precise gaps and whatnot with fingers that have no feeling and a weird purple colour isn't productive.

Couldn't be bothered looking at it today, got a WOF on my BMW instead. This is a set of bushings, tyres, new motor and a bunch of other fairly spendy fixes later. All I managed to really achieve is destroying about half of the tread on the new tyres doing skids in the rain.

Actually I started pulling the bung motor out today but before I did as I pulled the carbs the slides didn't feel right 100% of the time, would stick for no reason sometimes. Long story short I spent some time wet n dry then polishing the slide bores and slides so they where sliding really effortlessly; was no fuel gum or anything so I've NFI why it was like that. It's running prety okish now cept for the cam timing which I still think is fubar, but it finally revs out without stopping at 9000 like it's a wall which means it can actually do highway speeds instead of dribbling along at 80 when it felt like it. I also put new carb socks on it and used coppercoat to make sure they sealed 100%. Like I said before I think it's a bunch of things but at least I'm getting somewhere now. Various other shit I did/checked over the course of about 8 hours.

Also if you can smoke my other honduh in a dragrace I'll give you 5 bux and a bag of chips

I'll give you a drag on my GN bro. Or my Kawashitheap?


Cool mid engined poolude though, very different idea I personally wouldn't run the intercooler there if you're using it on gravel.

Yip, Cub Cadet.

Was originally gonna mount the motor sideways and use the original transaxle, but it just wouldn't be strong enough, so it'll get sold with the standard motor.

Anywhere that requires minimal effort, preferably just the road out the back. All else fails I'll just run you over when we are done to play the sore loser card.

Twas my grandfather's, he got too old and I fixed it. There is another one there I'm waiting to do the same thing to only all grey this time. The wheels are about the only thing I haven't replaced, they're full of bog.
