1985 Suzuki LT80 Repair

Hey all hopefully someone can help me out here. I found a 1985 lt80 laying around at the yard where I work and it’s missing some parts. Obvious things I noticed were carburetor fuel tank seat. Is there someone out there that has maybe a picture of one of these motors assembled so I can see what I’m working with and what I’m missing?  I ordered a new carb and got it installed to the existing cable but I’m not sure what else it needs as I’m not expert on these little engines. Any help would be greatly appreciated

There are two pilot holes on the top passenger side of the carb.  The front hole goes to a breather port that dead ends under the gas tank.  It just needs a small filter or piece of cloth taped on the end of the hose.  The other small 1/4" hole on the carb is toward the rear of the bike and it goes to the fuel petcock valve to the diaphragm port.  The larger lower opening hole is fuel into the carb and also goes to the fuel petcock to the outer connection where it says on/off/priScreenshot_20211109-170936.thumb.png.b8a81fee92890c51ce6cf4b7ca2952c7.png

      Hi, I am having issues with my TRX350D fuel pump.  It suddenly stopped running so I have replaced all the fuses and cleaned all the terminals.  I have fitted a new pump, fuel cut-off relay and rectifier.  Still nothing!!  The pump runs when attached to a battery.  The engine will start on the choke and the filter fills with fuel but it will  not rev and dies when the choke is closed. I have power to the relay but nothing at the pump black/white wire when cranking the engine.  Any ideas where to go from here would be very much appreciated!!

      I Ran across this video today comparing an aftermarket to OEM Carb on Suzuki Vinson, thought it might generate some interest, it is quite long but informative.

      Hi Guys!

      New member and could really use your advice. I would have to believe this has been an issue for others but a search here came up with nothing......? (Probably me not doing search correctly)
       
      I have an 87 Big Bear 350 YFM350FWT
      The OEM Mikuni BTM carb is shot and would rather replace than rebuild.
      It is no longer made and I have had good luck with NICHE carbs so I ordered a #K-CRB-0006 This was what they said was replacement when ordered. This Carb only uses 1 Throttle cable. The Slide is linked so it uses one. (OEM had 2nd cable coming through top to move slide)
       
      Problem is when I ordered a replacement Cable from NICHE (#C-CBL-0061) the Cable wire is a little short, not allowing Throttle to return all the way down to Idle position. I called NICHE and they are at a loss. Haven't gotten back to me after 2+ weeks.
       
      What would you recommend other than a carb rebuild?
      Can I just use 1 of the OEM cables (It is the right length) and snip/disconnect the other that went to top of Carb for Slide?
      Or ??
       
      Thanks in advance for any advice you have!!

      I’m looking for a top end kit for a Yamaha. I would like to see how well the engine runs before spending $6-$7 hundred on oem. Niche has complete kits from $1-$2 hundred.  Anyone have experience with Niche or similar Chinese companies?
