Well I had a great trip away with the oddy last week went through 90Ls of fuel in 5 days
and some serious km's,

OH PS I fitted a white spring in the driven Rear and WOW a hugh difference in takeoff and power up hills and the
fuel cell foam worked wonders NO fuel splashing at the filler neck NO fuel cap dribble.
Will install some in the main oddy tank.

Had a plug cap came loose and power cable to TrailTech broke
where all quick fixes

Most of the riding was on the open flat trails, as it was very rough in the hills

But I started to get overing when backing off the throttle and it would not settle at Idle did a pressure test
on day 2 NO leak @6Psi for 3 hours

some pics to share

Little video heading up 360 lookout

more videos to come

If idle is not settling right, try 1/4~1/2 turn IN on the idle air screw. If that doesn't help try 1 size thinner needle.

OH MAN that place is an awesome place to ride !!
Videos and pics do not do justice to the elevation and steepness of terrain. I know. Some steep drop offs if you miss a corner :-) .
I can see a guy running out of gas out there happening real easy. You lose track of time.
That would be an awesome place to do some long range shooting.
I here a squeak coming from the suspension. That sounds just like my brothers machine. It's dry heim joints on the rear suspension. A drop of oil before every ride will fix that.
Cool vid thx for sharing.

Kuma

The Roos and wallaby's? are up in the scrub as its so dry
I will find some footage for you and post you a link.

Fully

The White spring I chased up from Comet 4 years ago and I have a spare one
I was a little tentative fitting it up but now wont go back.

The squeak comes from my shoulder harness clips there hard to keep lubed.

Has ran fine for years I did try that NO change.

I am thinking carby float / needle seating. The slide and side needle looks fine.

But I and going to re pressure test.
