October 20, 200916 yr went out on my bike yesterday and when i revved the bike a little bit it made a slight hissing noise from the carb one the throttle was passed a certain point the noise stopped. someone told me that its the carb sucking air in through one of the needled on the carb, as the o-ring had gone. there was a slight bit of leakage from the neadle aswell. Does this sound about right? what is the best way to go about sorting the problem?

If the o-ring is gone, you'll need to replace it. Jon
