Thanks for your reply. Do you think it would be possible that the simple fact that it's gotten a lot warmer outside be causing some sort of change in the way the bike runs? I mean, are these carbs so...

What causes mixture to change suddenly?
Hi everyone!
Any idea what could cause my bike to suddenly behave like it's running lean and too hot? I haven't touched the pilot screw in over a year and it's been running great.
The only thing...

Re: Brake pads shape
Sorry for being completely retarded. I took the caliper off the bike, and what do you know? The pads were what everyone's been telling me they should be. Dunno why I saw them as something else when...

Re: Brake pads shape

Brake pads shape
Hi all!
I'm in need of a brake pad change, so I went to a local parts store and they said I need a type which differs in shape compared to the ones I have right now. I'm confused. Even searching...

Re: Strange leak at cylinder top
Cleaned it up a little and it seems that it's coming from the exhaust flange. However, it's not oozing or spitting all the time. I'll put some wd-40 on those rusty screws and see if they budge. I'm a...

Re: Strange leak at cylinder top
Thank you for your replies! The bike is from 2004 with about 20.000 km on it. Could this leak be related to the fact that I adjusted the fuel-air mixture the day before?
The pilot screw was only one...

Re: Overheating causes high idle, normal?
I'm quite sure it's the mixture that's causing this. But I'm simply afraid to do something about it. :) For one, it's an incredibly tight space to turn a tiny screwdriver when everything around your...

Re: engine noise
Mine sounds pretty much the same. And I too was worried about the noise and have been to several mechanics. Bottom line was that it's just a loud engine.
I have this rule now: If I hear a noise and...

Re: Overheating causes high idle, normal?
It doesn't. It's not the throttle cable being too short or anything. It's definitely related to the engine temperature. Or perhaps the carb becomes somewhat hot and that affects the mixture. But i...

Re: Where to order parts from? Please help!
It is a barely noticeable constant clunking. More noticeable at idle or low rpm, and a bit louder when it's cold. And it's not the valves. I fixed that. I'll know more on Monday when I see this other...
