Check main needle clip position on top of needle. May need to lower clip 1 notch or make sure all vacuum hoses and lines are connected properly. Also make sure intake is seated properly, sounds like it could be losing vacuum somewhere.

SOURCE: Air Filter Pods

Check the K&NFilters Website and you'll probably find the right size for your bike. Be aware, though, that changing air filters can lead to less performance as a result of carburetor jetting problems that can take some time to solve, and get your bike running well gain. Usually the manufacturer's set-up works better than home-fiddled-with ones.

SOURCE: when I hit the gas on my bike it bogs out? how can

sounds like its running to weak, check you air filter is clean,your fuel filter is not blocked, adjust your carb mixture,turn the mixture screws in untill they bottom out , but dont force them they have a fine needle pint and are easily broken making adjustment impossible,back them out 1.5- 2 turns and adjust from there..

Carb's can be cleaned, hope you didn't throw money away on a new one for dirt.
You may have dirt in the gas tank getting to the carb. If you can, remove the bowl drain, (At the bottom) and see if there is sediment in it.(dirt)

SOURCE: have a suzuki 900 rf 900 when you give it gas it

This is probably the emulsion tubes, they get worn quite quickly and by about 30k miles need replacing. They cause rich running at low throttle openings and that is what bogs you down. If you find very progressive throttle opening reduces the problem but taking a handful at low revs bogs you down then this'll be the cause. I assume the rest of the system carbs, valve clearances etc are clean and spot on.

Don't worry about the air-fuel mixture. It doesn't need to get adjusted.

It sounds like one of two things. One, the jets in the carb may be clogged. The way you're describing it, it sounds like the main jet in the carb is clogged. You're running off the slow speed jet. When you open the choke (enricher) you're adding a bit more fuel and air improving the performance a bit. If it's te carb, it needs to be completely disassembled and soaked in a professional quality carb cleaner and thoroughly gone through to ensure all passageways are clear.

The next problem is the exhaust system. I've seen bikes do this before when changing a camshaft. Remove a stock cam and install a high performance cam and the bike will no longer run. The reason is that the baffles in the exhaust system were so restrictive that the engine could no longer "breathe" with them in there. Removed the baffles and the engine ran fine but was too loud for the owner's liking. We replaced the stock system with a free flowing high performance muffler system and the bike ran great.

Good Luck

Fuel Problem
If you have 2 carbs that work on another unit but not this one then that narrows down the fuel problem to either an intake/ vacuum leak or bad fuel in the tank.
The compression sounds a tad high which could indicate valve timing ( exhaust opening late or not long enough)
On the ignition side you could have a bad CDI , weak pulser coil or sheared flywheel key.
I believe I would lean toward suspecting the ignition. I had a Honda that gave me fits acting like a lean issue. I was in that carb 25 times if I was in it once. Same thing, idled fine but died on acceleration. It was the CDI. Put a spark tester inline with your spark plug and see if the unit dies due to lack of spark.

Aprilia af1 125 sintesi, carb settings, what are the standard jets etc in the carb, also how do i set up the carb to run right, have a k&n filter fitted, bike has flat spot/bogging down between 5000 to...
Hi and welcome to FixYa,

Jet size would depend which carb is installed, a Dellorto 34mm?

Initially, check the sparkplug tip colors. If very light brown to almost whitish, then lean mix; too much air, too little gas. Try raising the needle if if has notches and moving the e-clip. If fixed, use small thin washers. The basic idea is to make the needle rise early on throttle movement.

If an aftermarket open breather air filter is installed, then it would be causing the lean mix, too much air. Restrict the filter by adding temporarily upholstery foam to experiment at which thickness the flatspot would disappear.

Good luck and thank you for asking FixYa. Happy Holidays.

How do I adjust a Mikuni roundslide carb. Thanks
Turn the air screw and the throttle screw inward until they LIGHTLY seat. Now turn each of them outward one and one half turns. This is the factory setting. You might want to clean the carbs. After cleaning, before you put the slide back into the carb, move the clip on the jet needle downward one notch. This will richen the fuel mix and help with the bog.

I have mucuni flat top sliders smooth bore they rattle when idling is that normal
If you can hear your Mikuni carbs "rattling" evidently you have changed the air box on your bike. The stock air box does two things, filter the air going into your engine and quieten intake noise. If you've changed or modified your air box in order to get better performance, you'll have to learn to live with more intake noise. The "rattle" you hear is really not a rattle. It is the "intake pulse" of each piston sucking air into the cylinder. Even at idle speeds, it does this so fast at to make it sound like a rattle. At higher speeds, it's so fast that you can't hear it most of the time. If the bike is idling at 1000 RPM, envision the piston moving up and down in the cylinder 1000 times a minute or 16 times a second. Every other time is an intake stroke, 8 times a second.
