Re: Road Toad stalls out

Sorry for not getting back sooner. I was just now able to get back to work on this. Bullfrog was spot on. I pulled the carb and the pilot was gunked up. Must have picked up some loose crap from last cleaning, and yes, I have an inline filter. Anyway, blew everything out and the bike runs great! I di...

Re: Road Toad stalls out

Just now getting back to this. BBQ'd the pipe for a couple of hours, remounted the carb and it fired right up, ran well. Went through the gears but then right back to bog/stall. Thought the clean pipe was it, now it doesn't want to run at all. Will fire up cold after it's been sitting but simply won...

Re: Road Toad stalls out

Was just able to get back out there. Here's what I found so far; Removed pipe insert first, still bogged out and stalled. Removed carb, it is remarkably clean. Checked all jets and they are clean. Looks like my float level is within spec of 14-15mm (has independent floats). Air cleaner is good. Not ...

Re: Road Toad stalls out

Thanks a ton for all the replies! I probably can't get back to it for a few days, and will report back on what I find. Plenty of good advice here! This is a really useful site.

Re: Road Toad stalls out

Thanks for the reply. Just put on new fuel line and can see it flowing good. Will have to pull the carb and check float level.

Road Toad stalls out

Hi all, just got my Road Toad running again. All seems to be running right until I drop it in gear and take off. I manage to go a few feet and it bogs out and stalls like it's out of gas. Will fire right back up with no problem. Not sure where to look next. Any help or suggestions are appreciated. T...

Re: Bonanza Hodaka Gearing

Yeah thanks, I knew it was a stretch but thought I'd try. You never know who might be out there. I'm sure I'll be back with Hodaka questions, I have a 75 Road Toad too. I did find the FB page and will check it out too. Thanks

Bonanza Hodaka Gearing

Hi all, new member, 1st post. I've been searching everywhere but can't track down what the correct jackshaft gearing is for my Bonanza BC1500SH, so I thought I'd try here. The Hodaka is not original and is Ser. # P55050. I know they came with E code motors originally. I've built this over the years ...
