Good morning to all of you ! (it's the morning here in france),
Forst off all I'd like to thank all of you for the wonderfull anf highly appreciated support.
I own an YFZ since 3 months now. I've never made motorbike nor quad before and was a bit scared by all the mechanic that I would have to do to make that quad run at is best without spending a fortune with my dealer.
I've been reading all the posts (quite all the posts !) of this amazing forum and learned a lot.
Last week I've tried to jet my quad (after taking off the baffle and the airbox lid).
And you know what ???
:rock THIS IS A GREAT SUCCESS AT THE FIRST ATTEMPT !!!
170 main, 45 pilot, stock needle on 5th clip and airscrew at 2.5. (used Daddog recommendations found on his marvellous website : yes Daddog you're the nicest mas I've ever read !! Sharing your knowledge like that is really helpfull for rookies like me).
Now my quad runs really fine.
But I still got two question :
- what is the needle and the clip position for ? how does it work ?
- what is the air screw for ? how does it work ?
I would like to understand what I've done.
I've seen no post explaining that : perhaps I haven't searched enough, and it that case I accept being flamed ! but please could you explain me ?
Oh, one more thing, that seems strange to me : my stock needle has 7 clips ! strange when all of you say it has 6, no ?
Thank you for your responses, and thank's again for all the other posts !
Nicolas, a lonesome french rider, lol !
(for the ones of you how knows this french competition, I will race my first ENDURO DU TOUQUET in february, wish me a good luck !)
