Rear Wheel Spokes 91-94 vs 96 model any difference?

Also, If anyone ...

Re: Urgent help (I know title sucks but its really urgent)

I am driving it with this setup until winter comes. It is acceptable. I will surely try your suggestion.

I am too much enjoying my daily rides to pull it apart again. :)

Re: Urgent help (I know title sucks but its really urgent)

Like 99.5 problem resolved with pilot screw. I don't know what it had with choking in mid range but it resolved it.

I was screwing it out 1/4 turn and trying / driving. It is 4.75 turns out now. No firing from exhaust, no tjuf, tjuf sound, no mid range crisis.

Only thing left is that it hesitates ...

Re: Urgent help (I know title sucks but its really urgent)

I also did close air inlet and after new rubbers engine shuts down within 10 secs with air intake closed. With old rubbers it was increasing RPM.

New rubbers only ...

Re: Urgent help (I know title sucks but its really urgent)

I just got motorcycle from Yamaha authorized workshop from carburetor repair. They failed. They say everything is in order but it doesn't work :gay: . I think they expected to clean it and send it back to me. I paid them some money for effort.

If not same it is worse now.

Choking is worse. It ...

Re: Urgent help (I know title sucks but its really urgent)

As I said. We open airbox. Placed mirror against air intake and light into it. I open throttle to the end and piston doesn't move at all. But I think you have the point. Thanks for that.

I believe this one is is turning wheels. I can hear them.

Urgent help (I know title sucks but its really urgent)

Piston on my secondary carb doesn't open even on full throttle. We figured this out by using mirror and looking at it through air intake.

It is not stuck. It goes very easy.

From where it gets vacuum?
