Get a pumper carb from a saw. You can cut a heat spacer from a nylon cutting board.
Hey again. Thanks for the suggestion I’ll look into soon but for now I went out and got some rubber hosing and hooked it up like that. Now my saw build friggin rips! Also replaced my spark plug so the thing idles now. Actually terrified of this bike now
But I’ve ran into a bit of a weird problem. Now I’m not too sure what the max rpm on a ms460 build should be or if it’s my tachometer or something else but the thing only revs to 7000 rpm and it sounds like my WOT and mid range sound the same. I didn’t notice after a good 1-2 mile ride that it was leaking through the base gaskets so the main jet might be jetting aired out a bit. My understanding is that these saw are capable of anywhere from 10-13k rpm? Doesn’t sound like it is revving that high. But overall it’s running great through not many complaints just some tweaks need to be worked out. Especially my idling but that’s gotten way better.
I'm pretty sure it's running a little rich, but ill have to wait till the weekend unfortunately because school, but spring break starts Friday for me so ill have all week to finish it. Another detail I noticed that I was having an issue with on my ld100 is the spark plug hole leaking. I might have not bolted it down enough. But ill definitely let you guys know when I can. Can't imagine what 14k rpm is gonna be like. I ran my current stats in a calculator and it was right on with what I ran today (36-38 mph). If it stays accurate I could potentially hit 70 on the bike.
Aww man that sucks, oh well though. I don’t think 7k is the exact limit of my engine right now though. Realistically it probably around 8000 maybe 9000 if I’m lucky. I still have to break the thing in fully and fix the leaking. So maybe I’ll pick up a bit of power once it’s worked in.
If you invent the flange, then you can custom fit a jog pipe. That sort of pipe might get you 10,000rpm. The bottom end is still the limiting factor in all this, they can only take 8K-ish.
