I must have made some kind of comment... that's when the lights went out and i missed some of your valuable insights about fuel in the oil... well the couch has now been measured, I got back on R W P and have soaked up those tidbits of knowledge... thanks Joe... love yall...

Hey Joe I got a bit of a mechanical question for you that's carburetor related for you. I recently had a local guy rebuild the carburetor on my 84 GL 1200 goldwing 800 mi on it since. I've noticed it idles a little high at around 1,240 RPM and something about the idol just doesn't quite feel right. (Feels like it could be a little smoother) The bike currently has around 84000 mi on it. My question is, should I go ahead and tinker with the carbs to get the idle down a little lower now or give it a few hundred more miles and tinker with it when I'm able to get a gauge set like that?
@JoeTheMountainJedi
Күн бұрын
i wouldnt try anything with the sync screws without a set of gauges......1240-50 is a skosh high on idle....you can back that down to about 1050-1100, and then see if you get any improvement from adjusting curb idle, AND idle mixture screws, but leave the balance screws alone till you get a set of gauges!!

@JoeTheMountainJedi

Yeah, it can be done....but take the term "reasonable" and dispose of it right now!! First thoughts would be take a pair of late model triumph 3 cylinder throttle bodies(probably from a midsize, like the street 675 or similar), then space them, and figure out a engine management system to run them!! Carbs don't look that bad now, do they?😂
