Answer
Hi Brian,

That's a cool MC!! You have Yamaha TZ's and Suzuki RG's there?

I don't have any experience with this model, but I suspect there's a tuning issue with the carburetor's mid-range.

Send me an email address. I'll return numerous carb information files that may assist you with cleaning and tuning.
