What’s the idle speed on a Yamaha bike?
The bike hasn’t been running to my knowledge for 4-5 months. Prior to my purchase the previous owner, a friend, said he cleaned the carbs. Basically, she’ll start up fine and idle around 1500-2000 rpm (full choke) but upon going to 1/2 choke or giving her any throttle, she dies.
Why does my Yamaha 650 run too rich?
If the left side is completely black, she’s running too rich, no air leaks on that side likely haha. A couple things affect how rich/lean the bike runs at idle, easiest thing to check/adjust first is the float level. New idle mixture screws can be purchased from mikesxs.com (look for parts for the 650, our shared carb is the BS34).
Why does the round slide on my Yamaha die?
The round slide seems pretty stout, but the diaphragm that controls its operation could get a tear in it and cause it not to operate right. There are lots of pinholes in the needle jet that clog up easily. The main jet is a pretty big hole that wouldn’t clog too easily, and mainly just limits the flow at full WOT.
