Electrical/Rev Limiter interference?

[delaswim]

I got my Warrior back from the mechanic today. He did a compression test and a leak down test and said the motor is fine. The carb needed a rebuild and now it starts and idles great. He did mention that it seemed like the rev limiter was interferring with the throttle. I rode it this afternoon and it does seem like the rev limiter makes the throttle sputter. Once you goose the throttle it takes off and runs great.

My question is what can I do to eliminate the rev limiter to rule that electrical gremlin out?

Thanks for the help and support.

Umm... I think drw sells a different cdi box you can program but I doubt that's your problem

My mechanic said it ran better when he unplugged the reverse indicator wire. My electrical system is a basket case to begin with. I'd just like to cancel the rev limiter and see what happens.

Warrior? The only rev limiter is the one for the parking brake. When that goes bad you can't rev it at all though.

Probably not advised, but can you disable the parking break rev limiter?

Yep definitely recommended to. It's up on the handlebars by the clutch lever. Just unplug it.

I most definitely will! Thanks for the tip!

I unplugged this one and the rev limiter sound persists. Any other ones I can check?

Also, could there be a wire at the CDI box I could unplug?

This sounds like a carb issue. I bet you're sucking air past the slide.

I hope not. I just had it rebuilt by a certified Yamaha mechanic. How would I check though?

I really feel your still having carb issues , and if your harness is a Rats nest I would suggest a drw performance race cut harness with lights it eliminates all the safety and unnecessary relays and if yiu wanna really improve it get the drw zeeltronic programmable cdi

Update: I took the Warrior back to the mechanic and he got me a new carb. After install, the thing runs like a beast! The carb rebuild kit didn't address the worn slides in the old one. Now it's back! I'm so glad I have a community of people to get good information from. Thank you to everyone who responded.
