I borrowed my exciter to a friend and result was that he drove too long too careful. Engine was lean at midrange because we had a cold day, about -20c.

This happened even I warned him, and told him to pump trhottle when easing off.

I am little bit :frech32:

Don't forget there were allot of Exciters that had the wrong needle in the carb right from the factory and woulf fry a piston at part throttle. See bullitins for retro jetting and get the updated needle as they were to be replaced. Drive it wide open and they were fine ----- just like a Yamaha !!!
