Hi guys, so I got the head and carb mod done and seem to have a problem. When I shut the throttle,the revs don't drop as fast as they used to? It's like the slide takes its time dropping and I am having to pull the clutch in and/or hit the brakes to make a corner instead of shutting the throttle and just coasting?
When the bike is not running and I twist the throttle I can hear the slide snap shut, same as when it's idling, I can feel it shut.
The mods are great, love everything else about this mod, I need to get this thing fixed.

Sounds like an air leak to me. Try replacing the reed cage gasket and check the clamps to the carb boot on the reed side. Could be a slight leak at the head gasket as well, so check the torque on that too.

I'll check that out,put a new piston and boyesen reeds in it as well so I'll start there, thanks eh!

Hanging like that is usually indicative of an air leak, so as mentioned, check all your boots and clamps.

Thanks guys, I didn't tighten the reed cage up enough. Problem seems to be fixed!
I'm embarrassed that I missed that.
