EX5 minor restore

[gunnerzz]

Wanna ask otai here about setting ex5 carburetor. By youtube, adjust higher idle then adjust air to get higher idle.
Lastly adjust to normal idle rpm.
Any good instruction for stock setting...tq

I have never understand how to do it. I did it once long time ago after diy servicing the carb but result in lower power. could be previously it was setup for a tad more power at high end.

I screw in the air IN to the max (will cause the engine to idle abnormally ) and adjust the idle slightly higher. Then i turn the air screw out until the engine starts to idle or firing normally. Give it a couple of rev and it should rev up smoothly at entire range. If not then need to fine tune little by little. I get very good fc with this setting but loses a bit of breath on top end.This could be the stock setting.

Need good communication and listening skill to understand what the engine note is telling u.

Thanks.
yeah, so far engine tone is alright But not quite near stock like i heard before. Maybe need little by little tuning. Look so easy 2 screw.

Alway reconnect the vapor hose from the bettery to dispersed out battery vapor outside the compartment. Its normal for the hose to be missin. u can use aquarium air hose.

So far from the picture its just surface dust so no worry. The sponge air filter is known to decayed and clogged the carb when no periodic maintenance is done. I just skit the sponge but kept the wire mesh.

U upgrade to sport rim just like what i did when i started to ride to work. Now i am itcy to go backwards by using spoke wheels modified to be tubeless. Been hearing mixed opinion and review in this conversion. This or gold colour 6 spoke aap wheels as my rear rim bearing hub is worn out, need to 'alas' the bearing for perfect fit.

Now mileage is 96k km. i will wait for it to be 100k km before deciding on engine service or minor upgrade. 53mm block with carb setting should be enough for daily ride.

Bro, soon ur bike millage reset to 0. I think many riders proud owning a bike for full cycle.
The feel of ownership is hard to express.

Just go ahead and remove the engine head. Its not like u need to pop open the hood to removes it. Tell him u want to borrow the head for a few days.
