Tuning a recent purchase
Posted: Sat Mar 11, 2017 12:29 pm
First Post! Finally decided to get another bike.On My first ride it sounded loud and a bit like a harley (potato, potato) and back fired a lot. After i purchased it i did some research. This site is GOLD! With a little reading and some handy pics i was able to tune the forward carb to stop gurgling and hear it start to purr. I was amazing to hear it as i adjusted the carb. Big thanks to all the members and info on this site!
I am a new Suzuki owner and not familiar with the ins and outs. What kind of regular maintenance should i plan on? (Esp after getting a new-to-me bike).
What are some things i should look at for a yearly tune-up?
Also I have taken a look at the air filter and found a small puddle of gas at the bottom, what is this from?
