Surge at 6500 rpm at highway speed
#131
I bought my bike and the previous owner had installed a #40 pilot and 125 MJ(keihin).It ran ok and I never noticed a surge.
Then I was searching for optimum MPG and I went back to the stock#35 pilot and down to a #120 MJ(keihin) and am now noticing a surge in 6th gear @ 6500 RPM. mmmmm.

Just found this thread - I may have the surge issue but I've also been playing with my TM36 jetting so it could be that causing it too... Glad I found this.
I'll try it.

Cut the wire an inch from the plug, made new ground and regrounded to the screw next to it where an already existing ground was (i think on the engine) fixed the problem but kept the bike from charging my battery. Out in the middle of the Everglades, battery died, took out the ground , retwisted the wire baxk to the one in the plug and taped it and my battery sparked right back to full batt...... Is there something i did wrong? Has this happened to anyone else? Why is it draining my battery?

I'm not sure... i unplugged the plug next to the carb with the black and yellow wire, cut the black and yellow wire adn regrounded.

But did you ground the box or the wire that you cut that used to go to the box ?
#138
couldn't get the wire out of the box, so i cut it short and regrounded that wire by itself

thats the rectifier, the part you are grounding. the budle of wires plugs into that and then you add/replace the ground coming out of the box (the yellow/black wire).
