    Somethings up w the carb I would assume. What did you set the air fuel screw at? Float setting good ? Main jet needle, the e clip setting ? All put back together right ? You could have fouled the plug also. Lastly I would double check your timing. Im sure you put it back together the right way but it could have jumped with the backfiring. I would start there.

    And this happens every year around the first week of June ? I would like to attend the next one.

    Awesome work brother.

    You should be able to adjust the float yourself. It’s just a matter of pulling the carburetor off and opening the bowl. Pull the float out and adjust the tab up as little n

    Have you checked the timing ? You may be getting a kick back and not a back fire. Still odd that it’s breaking the key way but that’s where I would look first.

    Most people don’t know that the screw even exists. And then try to tell someone to drill out the carburetor??? Lol we have had this discussion before and there’s so many more times this will probably come up again. It’s like finding a hidden door!

    Very nice. Looks like a lot of fun and for a good cause.

    Ok so treat it as you would your bike. Figure out the wiring and safety’s and go from there. And yes you can jump right to the starter to make sure the starter and motor turns etc. If so then it’s just process of elimination. The safety switch on the seat may be bad, the ignition switch, fuse, grounds, dirty plugs and connections etc. Usual suspects first and dig deeper if it’s more involved.

    Looks sick! Nice work on the light bar. Bike looks ready to roll . Good luck and make sure you stay on the forum with pics and videos of your rides ! Ride safe.

    Yes and it worked but !!!! BUT ! I had to reem all the holes out to make it fit. So a good drill bit and you will be good to go.
  11. Frank Angerano
    Your welcome. Be sure to post some progress pics.
  12. Frank Angerano
    I don’t think it’s a must do but I would if it were me. Just to have it fresh.

    That’s good but It will work intermittently so be sure it’s good. That spring loaded pin inside the reverse cam gets week over time and it gets lazy and will only work sometimes. It would suck if you did all this work just to have to pull the motor again. One of my recent posts on my bayou I had to change the reverse cam. There were some good progress photos of the old and new reverse cam differences with regard to the spring.

    I’m so confused 😐
  15. Frank Angerano
    I love it and it’s crafty! Well done.
  16. Frank Angerano
    No worries on the pics. Ok well hopefully it’s just a stretched cam chain. Have you by chance ordered the tensioner guides as well? Maybe a good idea while your in there ?
  17. Frank Angerano
    That’s good news. You looked at the back end of the cam and no issues or where the cam sits in the head and the underside of the cover ?

    Ok so what’s bad most likely is the reverse cam, not the neutral safety switch. Ive attached pics of the reverse cam. On that revers cam there is a small pin that’s spring loaded. That spring loaded pin is what touches the electrical tab on the neutral safety switch. Over time the spring collapses and does not make contact. Good news: it’s cheap to fix parts wise bad news: the bevel gear housing that covers that switch can only be removed with the engine raised up off of the frame or the engine pulled.
  20. Frank Angerano
    No prob !
  21. Frank Angerano
    If so take the light green wire coming from the harness not from the wires coming out of the switch and add a ground to it and see if the bike cracks and the light comes on. If so there’s a problem within the neutral safety switch or contact point on the reverse cam.

    If it runs well your good to go. Some people just don’t change oil and it gets black. I would change it a few more times using a cheaper oil at first and then go to a better oil on the last change that’s going to be your running oil. And from there just stay on top of it over time.
  23. Frank Angerano
    Yes it should. There are two wires coming up out of the engine by the shifter? Light green and red ?
  24. Frank Angerano
    Sounds like the fuseable link is bad. I would try to run a thick wire from the battery to the starter and see if it cranks but only bump it for a second. If it does then the line going to the starter is bad or the in line fuseable link. I would start there. If not then maybe the motor is seized or the starter is bad.

    No sir, that about covers it, nice work. That will add a lot of extra years to a bike. Ride safe !
