Well it looks awesome, going to be doing mine like that here soon! They can make any color you want right? Also is that a v-nose! If so, do you have anymore pics of the cabintry work in the front? Big thanks
Sorry man I didn't see this before. Mrs. Senator is the head of the Paint-Color-Selection Department at our house and she says, yes, they can make any color you want. Sorry not a V-nose.

This one really shows how steep these dunes can get!

No matter which route you take from I-5 to the coast, there will be small mountain passes that the KIA may not like LOL!

Nice pictures. We used to have a moderator here (mywifeknowseverythin) who disappeared. His first name was Craig. I know he used to do this also...check out this thread: http://www.quadcrazy.com/atvforum/atv-racing-events/7833-2010-sand-wizard-racing-dune-clean-up.html
Yep, I know Craig. He's a great dude...also cool is the one who know everything ha ha ha. We've broken bread with them a few times.
A group to which he belongs, the SandWizards, is involved in the setup of one of the cleanups in the Oregon Dunes that runs at the end of April every year.

so you think adjusting the jetting out some would possibly do it, im no carb professional, so try to speak about it as if you were training a 10 year old and ill probably understand lol.
Right on man. Carbs are simple in principle…but can be complicated in execution ha ha ha. When you put the choke "ON", what you're doing is opening up an additional circuit through which fuel can flow. This gives the engine the additional fuel it needs for combustion to occur at lower temperatures. A properly jetted engine should have a hard time burning all the fuel it sucks in with choke on after it’s warmed up.
In your case it sounds like there isn’t enough fuel getting through to the combustion chamber without the utilization of an open choke circuit. That likely means that the idle circuit (the gas flowing through the pilot jet AND through the gap between the main jet and the needle in it) is insufficient. A larger main jet will put more room between its inside diameter and outside diameter of the needle, which is one way to increase the flow of fuel at idle. Increasing the pilot jet is another. Or there could be an unnatural blockage like sand, etc wadded up in the either of the jets or around the needle that is reducing the flow.
-
You may have the carb as clean as it's going to get and just need richer jetting Even though it sounds more like a blockage somewhere in the idle circuit, it would be a shame to overlook an obvious solution, right?

I thought I had introduced myself here but I can't find any such introduction thread so here goes. Not new to forums or bikes but I am fairly new to quadcrazy.com. We're in Oregon and ride a mix of 2-strokes and 4-strokes.

That is about the same setup I am wanting to do to my enclosed trailer! By chance what type of coating did you put on the floor?
That's a Porch & Patio paint from Dutch Boys. Supposed to hold up to traffic and weather better. So far so good because my expectations weren't overly high.
