mine's like that too, on certain surfaces...a little gentle clutch grabbing takes care of that.
bandit88:
I've thought about the clutch slipping, and have got that sensation every now and then.. It's all new but maybe something's not right. I'm running redline 80 wt oil, maybe I'll try something else.
Cylinder plating looked a little worn but wasn't cracking or flaking so I was hoping to get a summer out of it. Haven't done a compression test but my foot says there's plenty. I know I shouldnt go by that though haha. Will check it one of these days
Foxx4Beaver:
you never mentioned where you set your ignition timing.
bandit88:
Timing has been set with the stock marks on the stator plate.
bandit88:
Did a compression test tonight. 155PSI so that looks good and maybe I dont need a replate. Good news haha. I guess im going to pull the clutch cover next take a look at things again. I am not sure what I am going to find but I feel like I have checked everything else.
