    okay heres the deal i got a gilera ice, i bought i second hand but i've had it around 2 months now.

    One things thats just come on is that everytime i pull away its like its choking on it self- theres no power it just judders power then after about 5 seconds bam full power and i go.

    everything is standard atm part from leo vince tt pipe.... and de-restricted.

    Thanks

    no probs just bad set-up but can check for nothing.

    also rollers could be too heavy.

    isnt standard. he listed loads of other parts in other thread, and more than likely had a mess with it. and like i said rollers could be too heavy

    oh come on....

    you have a pipe.. it wont rev off the line.. clutch springs are not stiff enough.

    ok did what you said put some stiffer springs and some lighter roollers 3.5 to be exact

    and tbh not much of a difference still does it when coming to a corner and then pulling form it

    you need to upjet around 5%. so take your float bowl off(the plastic bit on bottom of carb) then they will be gold bolts things these are jets the biggest one in the middle is the one you want. need to see what numbers are on it. then add 5% to that and just unscrew the old one and screw the new one in. refit float bowl make sure its sealed right and job done :punk:
