Alright I sent the email a few days ago and I haven’t received a response, did you receive it, or did I do something dumb on my end?
If I give you advice, either follow with a cautious second opinion or call me an idiot, either is fine.
It is definitely a bad tensioner because the head shows scrapes as if there was lash in the chain. So back to my question, how much would it cost to get a replacement intake can and both tensioners? Funny thing is I got the whole bike for 150 bucks and I’ve put more than that into it in part it’s just to get it running right XD
Feel free to send me an email and ill offer multiple shipping choices to suit you and lead time before it hits USA
What would I ask for exactly?
So that there are no confusions and such.

just clarifying, what do the bad tensioners look like, Also are you sure that is exhaust? I thought it was Intake since the cam is on the intake side of the cylinder.
I want to make sure so I don’t order the wrong thing. Also how much do you think the cam will be?

By looking at this drain bolt, is there anything else I should be aware of?If I give you advice, either follow with a cautious second opinion or call me an idiot, either is fine.
Give it to me straight doc, is it fixable?
what could go wrong after driving it without that part of the transmission like an idiot?
and can I get the parts I need from you guys?
at this point is it possible to just get a new carb/ pump or convert it to efi?
my specialty is in electronics anyway.

Forgot to mention that gas is leaking into the oil like crazy too

Sure thing! As soon as I rebuild that stupid mikuni carb again, I’ll share pictures. For now, though, are you able to help me find aftermarket’s?

I am still learning the website so I don’t know if it told you I responded 😛
i also wanted to add necessity is the mother of invention

By pictures do you mean of the bike or the carb?
the carb is beyond fixing. The vacuum pump plunger thingy (pardon my French, im very tired) has a budded screw on the end in the float bowl.
well, the bolts from each carb broke off from age and it’s now dumping liters of fuel over time into the front most manifold (I was able to fix the other).
(If I forget to shut off fuel when I go to the store, I have to break it free by reversing a bit in 1st gear to de-hydro lock the engine) that’s how bad it is.
I have literally rebuilt those mikuni carbs 7 different times with tankweld because I cant find any new and even remove those bolts and the sumbich keeps breaking.
like redneck v-tech though, when I give it half throttle and the mixture stabilizes, it lurches with an acceleration that terrifies me until I smile and frown at the same time.
Also I have designed a new air box because I hate the one that came with it, (I feel like I’m breaking the bike each time I put it in)
the main problem and why it hates pod filters is the vacuum line that runs in the air box, if I’m not mistaken… so I devised a plan to take inexpensive 1 1/2 inch (pardon my imperial XD) piping, spacers and fittings and make a cold air intake like snake into a single 3 inch pod. It also has a port for the vacuum line and seems to work very well.
it is dark outside so I can’t take new pictures, but as soon as I can, I will.
I hope this helps you help me : P

Main fuse is the first thing
