Bought my Bullet last fall, 7 years old with 200 miles on it and got a good deal. Only trouble has been a hiccup or hesitation at about half or three quarters throttle, usually under load, going uphill or 2 up. Anyway, ordered a carb rebuild kit but its been backordered for about 2 months now, so I went ahead and took the carb apart, cleaned it up real good with carb cleaner and compressed air and put on a new rubber intake manifold. Now I can start it but I can't adjust the idle. It races like a jet engine and vibrates across the floor but I can't slow it down. With the air cleaner off I can see that the slide is going up and all the way down like it should.
What am I not seeing in there? I know I am missing something, probably something simple, but I am just not getting this. I poke fun at my Harley riding friends for spending more time tinkering than riding, and here I am tinkering and not riding!
Any help is appreciated! Thanks!
