    Knocking sound at idle and almost quit without throttle

    The knocking is not causing it to nearly quit but a result of it. When you get that carb holding pop off pressure (and this is a MUST before your ride or you go BOOM! potentially) again you can adjust your low speed mixture and mechanical idle screw to get it smoothed out. It the vibration of...

    Need Purchasing Advice - 1998 (1997.5) GSX Limited

    When you take the accel pump off you can put a short hose on the end that draws fuel from the body of the carb and dip it into a spray paint can lid filled with fuel. You can squeeze the spring loaded lever with your fingers and after the 3rd or 4th time it should start squirting fuel out of the...

    Need Purchasing Advice - 1998 (1997.5) GSX Limited

    That sucks but it's good that you caught that. As long as you get some oil in there I think it will be fine. Maybe try thinning the mess with WD40. It would help displace the water and make it easier to draw out. Any left behind would help lube and prevent rust.

    Finally working on my 95 XP - Opinions on aftermarket parts

    I would do a compression test to see if that setup has been wearing away at things over the years. If premium fuel was used and the head dome cc size is not too small then the head should be fine. The OP FA's are OK too if the pop off pressure was lowered or the low speed jet size increased...

    Need Purchasing Advice - 1998 (1997.5) GSX Limited

    There is good reason behind the 97.5 jetting being lean and then never being used again. Once they got it registered with the EPA they could concentrate on what is best for performance and the engine. Those original 97.5 needle and seats are like 1.8's I think. Weird stuff that was quickly...

    I like these better. I see others cheaper but they do not look as clean. There are a lot of sets listed but not many selling. I'd send him a offer of 125 shipped. Seadoo 951RX Dual Twin Carb Carbs Carburetors 99 | eBay Remember that any set is going to need attention to be trusted but it's...

    $107 shipped on my last set of new billet (anodized purple) trim tabs. RacerXXX makes new sets of sponsons very reasonably.

    Crank rebuild.

    The WSM problem was with a bad run of cb's. With only 10 hrs on it I bet they will at least sell you some better parts at cost or something, it's worth a try.

    Crank rebuild.

    WSM knows about the issue. I would contact them and see if they will help you out like they have done for others in the past.

    98 gsx limited rave solenoid

    That is the same part as the RAVE solenoid but it was there to lean out the carbs. Leaving it off is the right thing to do.

    97 GTX Arieltek Timing Adjustment Suggestion (Matt Braley) or Other PROS

    I have seen a lot of negative write ups about those aftermarket MPEM's. It could be a faulty part so don't rule that out. Yes I would advance the timing just to see how it runs but I always get high test fuel and don't run around with the throttle pinned all the time. The ignition timing being...

    Jet sizes for hard jetting waterbox

    That's great that he was able to work it into a good spot. That's a great RPM for a stock pipe. The stinger location is at the small end of the pipe cone just before the coupler that goes to the waterbox. There is no fitting there but they do cast in a place for to be drilled. Normally the...

    Jet sizes for hard jetting waterbox

    140-150 in the waterbox where the water regulator was. I would not go less then 100 in the mid pipe unless you put a fitting in the stinger. If you do you can run a little smaller in the mid without getting the coupler and rear riser hose too hot.
