Ride report after re-jet SM 610

[28six]

Here's what I did:
180 jet
45 jet
1.5 turns out
Oem needle 5th position
Opened airbox cover 1/2 inch-spaced with washers
irridium plug
leo vince slip on- (What? You have to intall the Leo Vince logo plate yourself-- well thanks for the rivets LV!

Bike pulls harder now and rides very good mid-range but below 3200 rpm bike surges, and is choppy, not bad but not so good for slow parking lot turns.

Also clutch seems like it's not working right-- bike moves forward even after clutch is depressed. Not sure how that happened but I presume clutch cable needs adjusted. I must have changed the setting while fooling with the tank or something.

Does anyone have any suggestions what I should do with engine, clutch? Also, this bike is one of the best bikes I've ever owned! If you are considering getting a Husky, get one. They are fantastic!

Thanks!

Your clutch cable will stretch some, you just need to adjust it at the cable adjuster. Mine did the same thing after the frist 100 miles.

Spin the adjuster out to where you only have about 1/4 inch of slack from the perch.

I found that the clutch dragged a bit initially, and it still does to a small extent, even with 2000kms on the bike now, and that's with it adjusted out so there is only a small amount of slack before it engages with the bite point being fairly far out on the lever span...

I went with 2 turns on the fuel screw and the bike, I must say, now runs like a real motorcycle. I also took off the spacers on the airbox and put it back to orginal position. I had to make a screw driver to get to the fuel screw. Pretty tight down there...

So for 87 oct. gas....

This thing pulls great and is such a joy to ride. It's great for the twisties and a lot of fun in the parking lot! Hehe!

YOu gotta get one of these bikes! They are great! If you buy the red one all you need to do is take off the red fairings, or whatever color you buy, and you'll display "black" as the tank is black plastic.
