I'm confused here...you guys are wanting to make the gearing taller? Does
the 441 cry out for it?

Yesterday, we were riding through water that was deep enough to
completely submerge the carburetor several times. Once, the engine cut
out underwater and I feared water entered the airbox. When I opened the
airbox, it was dry. It turned out the carburetor float bowl was full of
water. I wondered if I didn't tighten the rubber boots on the carburetor
the last time I had it off and this is what let the water in. Am I
killing my engine by getting it wet like this? I always heard not to get
a hot engine wet because you can crack it by the sudden temperature
change. And, is is normal for water to be able to enter the carburetor
or did I just forget to tighten the rubber boots to the carburetor?

The '300' measurements are in 1/100s of an inch diameter of the
cross-section of the tire (ie. 3 inches). Sometimes you'll see this like
4.10, too.
The 120/90 stuff is 120mm wide, and 90% as tall as it is wide.
The '-18' and '-21' at the end is the inches of diameter of the wheel.
Since an inch is about 25mm, you can convert back and forth.
I'm pretty sure the front tire on the DR should be a 90/90-21 in 'metric'
size lingo.

John, t handle is an optional air screw that you can adjust your idle
mixture with , easier because you can access it with your fingers. the
stock one is only accessable with a real short screw driverup under the
front of the carb. Thumpers order no. is 1-800-259-5186 for tech
info.903-938-3340. hope this helps. Jesse

break it in with conventional oil before synthetic...make sure the rings are
seated first....I just found an oil that is not SJ rated...it is Valvoline
Premium Blue for $6 a gallon...
