I have a good core. Minimal time but with a bad rod bearing.

Who is building rack carbs for 1200's? I think its time to switch from my roundslides to a set of rack to ease the throttle pull.

Haydays is coming - dig around and you might find a set. Occasionally you'll find guys with parts for these motors F/S. Otherwise, find yourself a couple sets of carbs to work with and I suspect someone on the forums could do the work for you.

I had a set that Jim-aka-polarisrocks put together for me. A bored out set of xcr carbs that he spaced for me. Their working out great. Brad can bore them.

Yeppers Jim Hidy did my carbs as well.

Did someone say they needed some carb shafts?? Let me know

Thanks Jim

Snow is in the air.....

Was wondering if any of you have tried the Team Tied secondary on a 1200 yet?
If so, how's it working out?

I think I am going to try one this year, but don't know where to begin tuning wise.

I'm still running the button one, so a good set up for an older type Team roller would be good to know too. Then atleast they have conversion-charts.

What i'm using with the first team clutch is a black white spring with a 58-40/46 58-38/46 helix polaris primary with the black green spring and 70 gram polaris weights. This set rips for me at 3/6000. my motor is case and cylinder ported. Hope this helps.

My team set up was the same (as Larry's) helix. I also tried the black purple spring. 3-6k elevation.

Lynn what did you notice different between the 2 springs?

Don't remember. Ate, drank and slept since then. Getting old buddy.

Who has done this as a 1365? Trying to decide on stock bore or 910 cylinders.
What works good for pipes w/ 910 cylinders?

 

[Hardass]

I wanted to do the 910 cylinders but there are far to many issues with them for me. Broken long studs, skirts breaking off.

Plus, a good running 1200 can handle a 1365 on any given day

 

[revx827]

Thanks for the info. Looks like it will be a 1200 afterall.
