    Hello from the Philippines!

    I looked into removing the cat, but I'm not comfortable with the process. So I checked the spark plug again and saw that it was black. I leaned out the mixture and now the response is much better! After some research, I found that there are two screws for adjusting the carb. Until recently, I've...

    Hello from the Philippines!

    Yeah, I've still got the stock exhaust on there. I'm going to do more research on carb tuning on tinker around tonight. Anyone know what the factory settings are? I've looked in the owner's manual someone posted on another thread, but I didn't see it anywhere.

    Hello from the Philippines!

    Well, the kit did seem to be an overall improvement, but it didn't make a difference to this particular issue of throttle response. Now, I got a much smoother idle and acceleration is better at medium speeds. But if I were to go full throttle from a stop or after a slow right turn, the engine...

    Hello from the Philippines!

    No changes at all. The throttle response was great a few months ago. I didn't dare tinker since I was completely new to bikes. But one day, I parked in an open area and went to class. It had rained really hard (like monsoon hard) while I was inside. I noticed the throttle lag once I left the...

    Whew, that list is going to take me a long time to get through. Shopping at Ooracing gets expensive and eBay takes months for shipment. Still excited though! Actually, I've been having issues with throttle response for months now. If I open the throttle too quickly, the engine dies or at least...

    Hello from the Philippines!

    Thanks, Pete! I'll definitely add that to the list. Any other recommendations? I plan on replacing the rear shocks since the roads here aren't very smooth. Kamusta xristianos! I'm Fil-Am actually and living in Makati. The place where I got the Ace told me that one other person that lived in...

    Hello from the Philippines!

    Thanks! Ah, yes. That exactly what it looks like. I had just received an email from them a minute ago and it turns out I was doing it completely wrong. I don't have a clear understanding of the jets yet. I'm still a little confused, but slowly progressing. Anyway, here are a few pictures of my...

    Hello from the Philippines!

    Hey everyone! I'm a first time bike owner from the Philippines. I happened to have seen the Ace on a random YouTube video and I instantly fell in love with it. I became obsessed; reading and researching as much as I could about it. Needless to say I was lucky enough to find a distributor not...
