    The jazz music during the rebuild was so refreshing. It seems that everyone these days use trap/rap beats for that sort of thing and it gets old super fast. The jazz was great!

    Dude you are a true inspiration. I recently let go of all of my music equipment, I have been a musician for my whole life but due to the toxic community and several other personal reasons I have decided to let it go and switch my channel over to dirtbikes, not for views or subs or anything like that but simply just for the love of dirtbikes and to make content for fun without taking myself so seriously. Keep it up Kincade. Your channel is the absolute best of them all.

If they don't have the parts or after market goodies, let them know what you need to see if they can help you.

    Im a mmi trained technician and the service manuel is your friend. I'd say half of learning how to work on bikes comes from using tje service manuel. Where a trained tech comes in is learning how to measure everything using dial bore calipers and micrometers. I don't see alot of people that use them when building motors and it's a very essential tool to use. Something could be a couple thousands off which can cause severe damage. I think you do a good job, but the measuring would be my only complaint especially if you're wanting it to last. I enjoy the builds though.

    Hey Kincade, great job! Wanted to point out that the yz sounded off when running. Maybe it was just the GoPros mic but if you replay that footage soundly like something is maybe unbalanced in the engine, especially when you started it with the gas off than turned it on and went down the road, sounded weird at idle. Just thought I would point that out, great video!!

    Looking to get a smartcarb for my 2016 250xcw, just a question as to why you need the choke on during initial fire up?

    • @SmartCarbFuelSystems
      @SmartCarbFuelSystems 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      SmartCarbs are an internally vented, sealed design. Keeping the choke open when filling the float bowl from empty helps purge the air out of the floatbowl. It's only required when filling from empty, not whenever you're simply turning the fuel on before a ride. If you don't have the choke open for the air to purge and especially if you just throw the fuel to it it can short circuit up the fuel nozzle and put fuel into the crank without ever filling the float bowl.
      Reach out when you're ready to get equipped and we'll get you all set up!

      How do you ride the bike and what oil selection are you using? If it's a woods setup where you're doing singletrack, tight/technical, etc type riding you might consider going up to 50:1. Carb dialed and engine running like a top if you're still seeing spooge it may be that we're simply putting a little too much oil through it.
