I am having trouble getting my Blaster running after sitting for the winter. It is completely stock except for a TORS eliminator kit. Since the engine sat for the winter I assumed when it wouldn't start that it must be the carb. Sure enough it appeared that the float valve was stuck so I bought a moose carb rebuild kit, rebuilt the carb including new jets, new seals, new screws, new needle, and new float valve. Put it all back together, still won't start.
It has fresh premium gas, a clean UNI air filter, and a fresh spark plug which appears to have plenty of spark. I checked the compression and it was well within the high end of specs, I checked the reeds and they look like new and seat properly, I disassembled the exhaust and cleaned thoroughly with a MAP gas torch. The bike absolutely shows no signs of life. It turns over like normal, but doesn't really even show any sign of sputtering. I even towed it behind a truck to try to bump start it and still nothing.
The only other thing I can think to check is the timing but I had heard that the timing is not adjustable on the Blaster. If anyone has any ideas please help me out, I'm really stumped on this one. Any input is greatly appreciated.
