Problems any suggestions???

Ok heres the trouble short form.... My bike is in totally stock form with no resistor or nothing right now...

The problem is it is running really rich still.....

At low throttle postion it splutters... Like a 2 stroke trying to foul a plug...
When sitting still if I rap it out it blows black smoke....

Riding around 2500 is impossible.... Jumpy acting... Bucking and stuff....

I thought maybe TPS but don't know how to check it... Any suggestions appreciated...

Going to clean the filters and make sure they are not excessivly dirty or nothing... I have been in rain alot latley....

And burning a shitload of fuel..

Anyone else had these troubles???

To check the TPS setting, install a jumper to the TPS so that you can check the volts (DC) while the motor is running. I think you can used paper clips in the connector, in a pinch. Warm the motor, make sure the motor is idling at approx. 1000 rpm. It's important to be as close to 1000 rpm as possible, before adjusting. The DC voltage should be from 1.084 to 1.086.
