The Bullet is running well but I know it could & should be better. Lopes along nicely on small throttle, easily does indicated 55-60 mph which is all I ever ask of it. But faced with a hill or a head wind, open the throttle a bit more and it get's
louder but not much more go. Closing the throttle actually gives a brief extra push. Makes me think the mixture goes too weak with more throttle?
Postie delivered these today:
There's two new pilot jets, two new mains and a new
emulsion tube. I think that is what I have generally called a needle jet in the past.
At present, the carb - that's the Mikcarb VM28 - has a 25 pilot, 117.5 main and AFAIK standard emulsion tube. Purchases are 27.5 & 30 pilots, 120 & 125 mains and a P0 richer emulsion tube. Have a needle clip on back order, in case the one in there breaks or flies away never to be seen again. Well, could happen.
Obviously, the plan is to have a play and see whether a richer set-up will improve things.
Depending when the Salt arrives, all this might have to wait for a few months . . .
