Just means u wont have to get them rpms up to pop that clutch.....

Anyone else here to help the dude out?

 

[mahoney9]

I am new at riding this is my first bike. Dont think I know how to do that and dont think it is that safe.

If you put a new engine in it, you had to put the carbs in it too, no?
Have you tried manually moving the throttle link lever or synching the carbs?

I didnt replace carbs. But I had them cleaned. I dont know what u mean by synching. Cause it keeps reving up even in gear if u start going faster in a gear it will automatically go faster u have to shift up to slow the rpms down.

Ur right...

Synching carbs is getting them both or all 4 to do the same thing at same time.
I used to use a mercury guage to do this years ago, but they probly have a better tool these days...
N u have to be sure the cables are free to move on all ur carbs....
Just takes one .....to screw it all up...

how do i do that. I have a hayens manual for it but it is not with me.

Synching the carbs makes sure the butterfly valves in the carbs open and close evenly. Open butterfly valves will cause the engine to idle as high as yours. An throttle cable that is improperly adjusted (not enough slack) or stuck throttle grip will also cause high rpm speed. The reason the idle adjustment knob is not working is because the throttle link lever (which is attached to the butterfly) is already too high. The throttle link lever is what the idle adjustment knob pushes up to increase the idle speed. Also a choke that is stuck open will cause high rpm speeds.

And how do I fix it

 

[earlthepearl]

Sounds to me like ur gunna have to bring it to someone who knows what he's doing....with the right tools to do it....
A motabike mechanic of some sort.....
Cause it sounds like u got no clue.....

NNNnnnnnn....really......
If ur not knowledgeable about what ur doing here on ur bike...
Have someone that is work on it....
U don't want that throttle sticking wide open when taking a bad corner...
Or at any other time.....
Have a pro check it out....

And how do I fix it

What is the engine idle speed? How do I adjust it?

How do I adjust the idle mixture?

How do I synchronize the carburetors?

Adjusting the throttle cables

Syncing is not ad easy as it sounds but youtube it and you can get a good idea of how to do it. Sounds like you have a carb out of sync as they suggested. But i have a suspicion that your throttle cable is to tight as well. On the throttle side loosen the cable adjustment and see if it makes a difference. Could be that actually. And that takes all of 1 minute to do

To loosen the idle pin it is to the left
