recently did carbs for a certain EX500 owner, he reinstalled them yesterday, became anxious to hear it start/run......however, without the OEM air filter.
He reported the bike started/idled ok, but upon throttle, puked at 1/4 to 1/3 throttle.
Answering his text, I made him aware that the filter supplies somewhat of a restriction, which the carbs require by design. I suggested he give it up till he had the "missing piece" installed. Today he texted, reporting it "passed with flying colors".
So I offer y'all.....keep in mind the difficulties running without airbox or filter, or testing carbs without same.
