upgrades
so ive put on my new chain DID 428 standard 102 links, preformance cdi, monster muffler and pz30 mikuni carb.I also got an aftermarket air filter(ill find part # later) which has an aluminum end so cramming into the battery box is a non issue and everything has gone well except when reinstalling the carb? Im about half throttle i can rev it up but its too high to ajust with the idle screw. I got a new main jet 110 and reset the needle to second from bottom ring.Waynev, i remember you telling me if i put something on wrong id be a full throttle(cant remember what) but i can still rev higher so i think im around 1/2 or 3/4? the throttle cable is on fine and the slides on right. is my cable too short i didnt have a problem with the stock carb and i think there the same? any help is appreciated and thanks again for the parts waynev

Pull the rubber back from the end of the throttle cable at the top of the carb and make sure the steel part on the end of the cable is seated all the way down, if you put it in backwards it would almost be full throttle, the slide has a cutout on the one side, that should face the air filter.
Thanks for taking the time to drive over, it was nice meeting you, i'm finally thinning out my parts supply, your next W&G. |

does the metal piece slide over the cable? if so it is on correctly i dont have the air filter on yet and have no idea where the idle or air fuel screws are adjusted to. also with the boot up i can pull the whole cable to rev?it definatly not full throttle but almost. turning the idle screw didnt help much and the throttle feels ok but tight?

Make sure the cable looks like this at the carb before you push the boot down
NOT like this For reference Your air/fuel screw is the green arrow and should be about 1.5 turns out if you replaced the pilot to the 22.5 that i gave you Your idle screw is the red arrow, adjust it to get a nice smooth low speed idle Other than that you should be able to pull the cable out of the top of the carb with about 1" of bare cable showing if everything is correct, since your filter is off you should be able to make sure the slide is going all the way down, in hindsight i should have opened the package and replaced the pilot for you and explained the whole setup involved to swap the carb out. |

When you get your T2 you can go into "my gio" and enter the VIN #, once you do that it allows you to print off a NVIS and CoO sheet, while i haven't attempted it yet, john at GIO says to print it off on good quality paper and sign it.
Glad to hear the upgrades are working for you, i guess it was worth the long drive to my place. |

A word of caution, don't use the NVIS and Cert of Origin that comes with the machine, in the box. They where not accepted by the bureau here in Ontario. Was told to get the right ones and that "Gio should know that by now" as they have had the same thing happen several times already.
Use the gio site like waynev said. I rooted through my bookshelf at work and found some thicker chapter dividers in an old three ring binder manual. I carefully clipped off the chapter number tabs that stick out the side and printed them off in my laser printer with the paper setting to card stock. The bureau didn't seem to mind the three punch holes in them either. Of course I went to a different bureau second time around. It reminded me of high school, doctoring up my old drivers license so I could get beer! PS: I used the dividers because the "nice paper" at the office supply store way too pricey for two sheets. Something like $26.00 or there abouts. Didn't need 50 sheets.

oops, the air filter is a xs preformance 42mm oval pod filter. part#15-0033, it looks good and fits ok but you will nee to take an exacto blade to trim some rubber down so it dosent interfear with the choke operation.

I did just notice on an order that a placed for my buddy had 2 mini ATV's on it and i don't see the "VIN#" link, but on my next order that included my 250cc X31 the link is there to enter the VIN, you may have to e-mail GIO if it is not showing up. |
