Sam, you gotta relax with the multi 30mm PJ Carb threads, for real.
Your mixture is off, to say overkill right now with that 30mm PJ jetted way too fat. your reeds may be shot as well, and we do not know what kind of compression you have. I will bring the stock carb jetted for your setup, and a compression tester to check ya out. We will pull everything, inspect your reeds, do a comp test, etc, and get ya back where you need to be, no worries. We will figure it out, for sure...

Chill on the 30mm carb threads ya natzi...

See ya tomorrow, re-freakin-lax till then, capiche?? :D
 
lol haha yeah i gota stop this lol there was No main jet in the carb lol im getting one monday and ill be set that carb is super clean!! you made me feel bad about given you my carb to you all dirty and sh*t. i put my friends 280 in it and it ran AWESOME let me know how Fenoff is thanks bro.
 
normal causes of no' powerband' jetted to rich which robs power, worn out reeds, or low compression.... even though id herd/ seen blasrter with 120 or less compression still boggie!!

mine hadn't ran it atleast 5 years checked compression before starting it the first time and it was sitting around 120 and it still boogies indeed need to check it again and see if it's improved since running again
 
Hey Sam, glad you are happy with it, told ya that carb is clean. I thought I left the 260 in there or the 230??? hmmm, oh well, as said ya need about a 280, should be good. Let me know how ya make out once finished with the new jet, etc.
 
oh yeah got me power back put my new stock carb on and it runs amazing Thanks dane you da man

Nice Sam, glad to hear all worked out.

Yeah, that 30mm PJ I am not gonna use on my bike, probably just sell with a few other carbs I have, do the ebay thing, etc.

Really have no need for it but I love to collect mod parts for upgrade, weather to help out others or use for myself if justified. I just had a stock VM26 carb ported and bored to 30mm with divider plate from RBDesigns, happy with that right now and it is tuned perfect so not messing with it.

later bro...
