    High idle (4-5k rpm) for a few seconds

    Morleys jet kit with k&n lid, full kerker exhaust. What would cause the engine to rev to 4000-5000 rpm and stay there for a few seconds? Im sure its not the throttle cable because it does it using the choke too. Carbs have been gone through and only bench synced for now. I did find a couple...

    High school textbooks covertly altered to teach false interpretation

    (NaturalNews) The so-called "agents of change" have long used the public school system as a means of imposing their views. But in recent years, the governing masterminds have stepped up their efforts, and they have become more brazen. One such recent effort: purposefully misrepresenting some...

    High Speed Weave

    Interesting vid I ran across being discussed on another forum. It seems, back then, even Dunlop technicians didn't know exactly what causes the dreaded weave - only that by lying down, you could minimize it. They should have contacted this forum for the complete answer.:biglaugh...

    Post Overhaul - High Idle Issue

    I recently bought a 01 Vmax and shortly after I found the V-Boost cable between the servo and butterfly assembly was snapped. I ordered the cable and replaced it no problem. Since I had the carbs off, I halved the assembly and cleaned the PAJs, idle jets, and the jet assembly in the float bowls...

    High speed wobble

    High Speed Front End Wobble and Gas Leak

    As I've read this is very common to these bikes. With mine it can start as slow as 160km/h although usually starts around 180km/h. For my bike I find that if I push against the bars I can get around it happening. I must keep pressure on them whether accelerating or decelerating till I get below...

    Are my expectations too high?

    I had some powder coating done last year. It turned out OK. My only grief was the part had some dust or some kind of specks, buried in the coating. Not alot, just enough for me to notice and be annoyed. I've went to a different shop this time. I had the swingarm, rear caliper, handlebar...
