Choke…
I never went to the mechanic. I decide on doing my own initial service. I did the oil change and adjusted chain. Still not sure about the choke but the bike runs and starts on first try. I have nearly 500 miles and it seems to run fine. Still don’t know why it dies on either full choke or no choke. Eventually I’ll have to get the bike serviced professionally and have them take a look and will post the result.

So I guess the bike doesn’t like full choke. What does that say about how lean or rich the engine is running??? And does it impact performance or the engine’s overall health? |

I almost never need to use the choke (lever all the way down is choke off) to start the bike however I live in the mountains in the summer and live in South West Florida in the winter.
My buddy Hunting Boy put some Indian stickers on my bike so that is ok since he is a Cherokee Indian. |

So seems at lower speeds it’s off but then above 55mph appears to be more accurate. |

Can anyone comment on what the new top speed is with their set up and what the new comfortable highest cruising speed. For example I can’t imagine holding 70 mph for long at all. As it is right now on my bike 45 mph in 5th gear is comfortable, but at 55+mph it sounds like it’s working too hard, screaming and shaking. I don’t really feel comfortable holding those high revs for long. I should mention that my bike is relatively new, with only 500 miles of easy lower RPM riding during these 500 break in miles. I have noticed though that with every 100 miles or so that the bike seems to open up more and more, so maybe it will feel better at higher speeds in time with more miles??? Is it worth modifying the rear sprocket? What’s the new long term cruising high speed without pushing the RPMs? |

She is running just great and I am keeping her unmodified. |
Need a rear rack for my DF so I can mount a top box. I can't find one anywhere so I guess I will try and make one.

What grade gas is everyone running? Should I just be using regular? I’ve been running premium.
