Hello all,
I have a 2006 whizzer with the carb spacer. I just bought it off CL with 400 miles.
It did not have fire at first but unplugging and plugging in the wiring harness got spark back
2 problems that may be related to each other.
1 issue runs:
Its running rich. It has black smoke and sometimes backfires when backing off the throttle. It runs better if the car mix is all the way in and ran better when I removed the air cleaner.
Do these motor require exact jetting?
I saw in the 1999 repair manual that you can change timing 1 notch and will help. Has anyone done this?
Any other ideas?
2nd issue Lights.
For some reason when I turn on the bike (lights come on), start it, the lights go out when revving above idle. Lights come back on when RPMs go back to idle.
If I unplugged the battery the bike still runs like normal (bad as above) same with or without battery.
