hey everyone, my bike started acting up.
It misses a little when you put the throttle to 3/4 or wide open suddenly..the bike CAN make it to high rpms fine if you slowly roll the throttle on but power seems a little flat, so I'm ruling out electrical for the simple fact the bike sounds fine at high rpms, doesn't miss or hesitate, it's more a matter of the amount of gas you give it and suddeness than anything, and it's also smoking more than usual. I pulled the plug and it's black and wettish. I already tried cleaning out the carburetor, checked compression, replaced the spark plug, tried new gas, made sure the powervalve was working right, checked the reeds. I'm suspecting it's sucking in tranny oil. First guess would be the rightside crank seal. Any other ideas/possibilites? If it is this seal, would I need to split the base to swap it out, or can I change the seal just by removing the engine cover on the clutch side?
Thanks alot, this is really hassling me.
