Well I just bought an 02 Fx650 on Saturday. I am having the damnest time getting it started. I have checked out the hard start guide. The bike has a Keihin fcr carb with accelerator pump off of ktm 525. I want to learn more about the carb. Carb smells like it is dumping gas....I am going to pull the plug tomorrow and check it.
I would like to find out more about the carb.....like there is a plug on the top of the carb going no where, why is having a KTM 525 accelerator pump a good thing, can't even tell where the damn choke is (admittedly have not looked in depth yet).
Found all the cut electrical wires so I am sure that I can hook a headlight and tailight back up, and get the bike street legal.
Can someone point me in a direction to learn more about this carb....is this the newer model of carb, that someone put on this bike? I thought that they came with a Dellorto in my year, but I may be wrong. This bike is not 100% the way the factory intended, that is why I am having some difficulties here. Trying to learn as much about it as I can. Thanks for any help.
