Nah I'm nowhere near Rochester, I'm down in the southern tier. A friend of a friend is doin the work for me, he does the repairs & stuff for the big club in these parts.

Indeed😊 I MIGHT go that route, but I'm more interested in fixing it as a means of learning. It wasn't completely stock when I bought the bike anyway, so we'll see what happens.

Oh and it must be fate, because I was whining about it yesterday, today I get the call from Jireh that it's shipping tomorrow WOO HOO!!!!!

 

Falicon makes pretty stout cranks, btw. They don't scissor.

 

Watch out for the well I went this far i might as well do ......... Good luck .

 

Oh I'm already on that road. I just can't leave anything alone

 

Best pics I could get inside the box. She's goin to the shop this afternoon.

 

At risk of seeming like an idiot, how does the choke/enrichener operate on these carbs? I've been using either a Keihin CV carb or Mikuni for several years, both of which use a cable. This appears to be completely different.

 

Usually the air cleaner assembly has a lever that connects to the little nipple sticking up on the top left of carb.

It is an enricher and not a choke.. As Griz said there is a lever on the back side of the air filter mounting plate.. Only to be used for starts if necessary because it adds a lot of fuel.. As soon as the motor starts push it down and use the throttle and throttle lock to keep it running off necessary..

 

Yep! Once I opened the box & looked at the other parts, I saw the lever and did the math.

I didn't realize that was part of the backing plate, I thought it was either part of that plunger assembly or integrated into the body of the carburetor. When I opened the box to get pics, I didn't see that on the carb, & I was like "wut the hell?", another box contained some hardware & the air cleaner assembly lol.

Now I know!

 

Better pic of the new engine. By the way, i misspoke again, I did indeed order the 113😎
