Hey smithers, Its been a while since I've been on but in that time I've been riding around on the bike lol. So I used a shot of starting fluid in the back of the carb and the engine fired up with both carb adjustment screws closed and slowly backed out the screws til the engine ran with the gasoline and was able to get it to idle put the air filter on and tried to drive it and I pulled the accelerator and it bogged down and died so I assume its somethin with the throttle stop screw whatever I did same outcome after this I new it was something else come to find out the fuse that came with the brand new battery, I pulled out the fuse looks like perfect condition and I turn it upside and one cap falls off of it and it looked like someone tried to glue it on there lol so I jump the fuse and the bike has acceleration now tuned the carb the best I could, still needs a few adjustments I've got it up to 50mph but the lights don't always work too well when u turn on the head light or turn signals the bike jerks around and bogs down and u lose almost all acceleration all the lights are operational except for the following; right turn signals seem to work properly 90% of the time sometimes they don't want to blink, the left turn signals seem to only want to work 10% of the time not blinking but remain lit. The readouts from my battery seems to be a constant 6.34V and I accidentally ordered a rectifier not knowing it was located under the seat of the bike lol so I have used both rectifiers with the same results. I have wired the new rear tail light with the green/ with yellow stripe and the brown wire to the hot lead on the brake light and grounded to frame and my neutral light burnt out some how and checked the wiring everything seems fine tried 3 different bulbs no illumination no more burnt bulbs any ideas
