Ok, here goes. Does anyone know what the stock main jet size is on the 05/06 Foreman 500's (474cc)? I talked to the mechanic at the local dealership and got 3 differint sizes, ranging from 135 to 162.5...I should have known better than to ask those guys, so, Im asking you folks. Also, Im trying to figure out what needs to be sealed on the bike. I know of issues with the recoil starter, and plan on folowing the process I read in the Technical area of the board, but what else? Is there a better way to seal other parts of the motor/drivetrain, or other things I should watch for? Im not going to add a snork yet, but should I seal the box better? I may do the "add water and look for a leak" test, but let me know what you ladies and gentlemen have found through your expierences. I know about the U-joint angle issue, but from what I understand, this happens when somone who weighs 140 puts 31 10.50's on their machine and then does multiple wheelies by sidesteping it in 2nd.. Are there any other weak points to watch for like that? Im going to West Virginia in another week, and will be riding woods trails, as well as hill climbs and water/mud crossings. Any advice would be greatly appriciated.
