Again, I think you need to reevaluate your goal/budget. Are you mechanically inclined? Familiar at all with 2 strokes and how they function? Are you willing/capable to spend a LOT of time and money...

One test for checking for a air leak is to completely close your throttle blades (turn out idle adjustment until not touching) and then see if it will start up and idle. As long as the carbs aren't...

I'm not understanding what modifications have been made that would necessitate only a change in factory idle...aside from modifications that would also require a reflash/tune to other aspects beyond...

Pull it. Rebuild it. Enjoy summer. They aren't complicated rebuilds and you will know them inside and out. Do carb rebuilds while its apart using ONLY genuine Mikuni rebuild kits.

Andddd its off!

Little bit of heat from a propane torch and a Milwaukee 18v 3/4" impact gun borrowed from a buddy. Crazy...

Engine swap purposes in boat with limited front to back space between bulk head walls in engine compartment.

My T/A has been on back burner for a few years now. Gave it a lot of attention this summer and its back to being a "driver". Need to update my engine build thread actually but haven't. Its officially...

Nice build you have going on. Always been a fan of the raiders. Owned one for over half my life (14 out of 26 years). Been saying I was going to sell it for the last two years as it doesn't get used...

Doubt it was head gasket failure. How did the power valve look? Any chance it caught the piston/rings? Were the carbs rebuilt with genuine mikuni kits when new motor was installed? Strictly premix or...

One question before you use those rebuild kits. Are they Genuine Mikuni Rebuild kits? If not return them for a refund and order genuine mikuni rebuild kits. Yes they are more expensive but trust me...

Okay I'm following now. What are the benefits to using the 6v batteries in series then parallel as opposed to 12v house batteries in parallel?

Good work! Are the 6v batteries the house battery bank? Separate but integrated system for the motors with converter/inverter setup for charging and electrical use with motors running? You might have...

Good news! Hope the lake test ride goes well. Nothing beats the feeling of accomplishment after doing work like that and getting to ride it!

Been riding since I turned 18 in 2011. First bike was a 81' Kawasaki KZ440. Got hit at a 4-way stop about a year later March of 2012. That July upgraded to a 96' Kawasaki Vulcan 800A. Rode that till...

Glad I stumbled across this post. Read through the whole thing and I've learned a lot. You've done a great job so far. Any chance of you getting some action videos of it from a distance once you get...
