I'd replace the base gasket before going after the valves personally. You have an air leak that prolly causes it to run extremely lean to the point of not being able to have the correct air/fuel mix.

Ya, I was thinking about that too. Couldn't a shop take from the short one and add to the long one? I bet it's more than $20 though. I could send the two chains back to the vendor and ask him to make...

I've been thinking the same thing about the KLR650. ;) It will cruise at 75 mph, but it pretty much tops out at 90mph. Also, the acceleration from 75 mph to 90 mph is not that rapid. ;) Don't get...

Anybody know the fuel capacity of the GY200 Lifan knock off? I'm considering fitting a XT225 tank instead. The Kazuma cap is ridiculous. It leaks at about 60* tilt. :evil:

Ya, I know but I figured the needle valve was about shot now. It is a 2004 model. The gasket was round rubber rather than say a flat paper gasket used as a cylinder base gasket. Also the gasket that...

Meet halfway in Vantage at Saddle Mountain near Mattawa. It's a BLM riding area and it's fun. Can do that this winter even. It's banana belt there come winter time as you know. :wink:
