Reeds:

The reeds must lay flat on the reed cage.

If the reed tips aren’t lying flat, replace them immediately.

The reeds must have a tight seal on the reed cage.

If the reed is damaged in any way, replace it. This means cracks, chips,
and ruptures. Anything abnormal, replace the reeds.
Take the reed cage out and hold it up to the light and look in through the cage. If
you see light, it is not necessarily a bad thing, but the pedals may need to be
replaced. Bikes have been known to run real well with light visible past the reed
tips as long as the jetting proper for the conditions.
Exhaust
The pipe is a crucial element to a motorcycle. Any kinks, dents, or damage done
to the pipe will result in a major performance loss.
NOTE: Be sure to take the pipe off, and any carbon that may be built up.
Carbon build up is created from exhaust. Exhaust has oils in it, and the oils cling
to the walls of the inside of the pipe. Over a long period of time, the diameter of
the pipe will decrease, due to carbon build up. So it is essential to clear the
residue.
NOTE: If your bike sounds louder than normal, this is a strong indication that
your silencer needs repacked.Wheels & Tires
Rear wheel pullers
Figure 38
1. Remove axle, and
back wheel assembly.
2. Pull the rear wheel
pullers out of the back
of the swing arm.
Rear wheel alignment:
By eye, ensure that the rear sprocket is running true (in-line, planar) with the front
sprocket. When the sprockets are running true, the wheel is properly
straightened, and the chain will run straight.
