Climbing Screws
My bike wont tick over below 2000 rpm and it also revs to 6000 prm without the throttle being touched, why?
its a twin engine machine, the carbs slides are opening/closing properly and the jets/flots etc look good, the mixture screws are set to the recomended position but turning the stop screws out too far causes it to falter, then it takes off and just keeps climbing of its own accord till I kill the engine or turn the stop screws right out, stumped?
the bike is a four stroke twin. It does appear to have a split in the outer rubber casing of one inlet manifold so maybe thats it? in comparison with the other manifold the inner surface is scored and dirty but I dont see how the air is getting through?
ive replaced all possible on carbs and am going to use silicon sealant in addition to orings on intakes but till rain stops cant get out and on it so...thanks to all for their suggestions Cheers
have cured the over revving, and can get a decent tick over,albeit a little fast, but at a quarter throttle there is a dip/blank spot?
Check for blocked idle jets and inlet manifold air leaks.

Rock Climbing Basics & Background Information
Rock climbing, a popular hobby in England and Germany, became established as a sport in the end of the nineteenth century. The sport has gained critical acclaim and admiration from the media, especially for the dare-devilry stunts and guts, it involves. Ever since, more and more athletes showed interest, it soon gained popularity and became declared as a world sport.
The earliest form of this sport was practiced in Colorado in the nineteenth century. A popular pass-time for the local public, the sport involved free-climbing with passive protection. In other parts of Europe, the sport was an essential part of mountaineering, with mountaineers scaling angular faces as preparation for a climbing expedition. By the early twentieth century, Rock climbing became completely established in the United States.
Free climbing and Aid Climbing were two traditional methods used by early rock climbers. In Aid Climbing, climbers use climbing harnesses and climbing gear for protection, whereas climbers in free climbing, needed to have skill, technique and physical strength.
As Aid Climbing became extremely popular in the sixties, American companies developed more advanced and safety oriented equipment that replaced the rudimentary piton and the coir rope. More Finer Equipment like slinging machine nuts was available, that offered safety to the amateur climber. A more advanced technique was developed in the early eighties that combined both free and aid climbing methods. This technique reduced the level of difficulty, thus improving style of climbing.
As climbing gained popularity in the United States, the sport became more sophisticated and safe. The indoor rock-climbing wooden walls replaced the traditional rocks and hostile terrains. The harnesses and ropes were made shock absorbing and from skin friendly material. Climbing as a sport is extremely demanding. In order to make it as an athlete, with strength, power, endurance, flexibility and durability is an absolute necessity. These attributes are equally important and a deficiency of either one of them can make the climb painful. Thus, a regular review and practice of climbing basics can improve your style.
There are many types of climbing, each having own grade of risks and difficulty. It is one of the most dangerous sports as it involves extreme risk and sicknesses. The sport is not advised for people suffering from ailments such as vertigo and heart diseases. However, with the proper safety, the danger element is reduced considerably.
Basics Rock Climbing:
A climbing troupe works in pairs, with one leading the climbing and the other belaying. The leading climber is regularly provided rope through a belay device. The job of a leading climber is to place route aids, also known as bolted hangers, until he reaches the peak. The duty of the belayer is to ensure the rope locking system in case of a free fall. The ropes are attached to the climbing harnesses, using a figure-eight knot or double bowline knot. The leader can also place nuts or Spring-loaded camming device in cracks along the route. In sport climbing, metal loops or hangers are employed. Hangers are nailed to the rocks, using hammers or masonry bolts. Ice screws are used in ice climbing.

Climbing Tools: How to Sharpen a ice screw/Part1
Mountain Climbing: so You Want to be a Mountain Climber
So you want to be a mountain climber. You want to be a mountaineer, do you? Alright then. Here are the very basics. Mountaineering is the act of hiking, climbing and camping up mountains. To most of us it is a sport, a hobby. But to those for which mountaineering is like breathing, it is a true profession. You must be athletically fit and have the technical ability for it. One more thing many people don’t realize: you’ve got to have the mental capacity for it. It’s challenging for the mind and the spirit. You need every part of yourself.Â
Â
                                             Â
Â
There are three typical terrains encompassed by mountaineering. They are snow, glaciers and ice—each requiring its own specific equipment. Snow shoes are very useful for deep snow, such as what you may find in long fields of snow or on inferior slopes of a mountain where snow will pile up. Glaciers pose no problem by themselves. The greatest danger is in the common occurrence of a crevasse while crossing one.  These deep chasms are often well hidden from sight by a snowbridge that is often just a few inches thick. A wrong step and it could be all over for you. In glacial travel, a system of ropes is used, binding climbers to each other. If necessary, a crevasse rescue to the rescue! Basic glacial gear includes rope, crampons and an ice axe. This will also be your basic gear for travelling over ice. If you’re travelling over steep ice, however, you’ll also need ice screws (aka pickets) and an extra axe. Now, if the ice is a vertical wall, you’ll need ice climbing skills to get up there. Be ready for it. Â
Â
Climbing a worthy mountain requires days of camping out. Time is needed to acclimatize to the high altitude conditions. It often requires more than a day to descend to the base of the mountain once you’ve reached the top. You’ve got a few choices for shelter on those forbidding slopes. Base camps may be found on many popular, usually very dangerous summits. These camps give you time to prepare for an attempt to reach the summit. Additional camps may be found further up the mountain where the summit cannot be reached from base camp in a single day. Mountain huts, with varying names based on location, have basic eating and sleeping facilities. Some are abandoned during certain times of the year but, at favorable times, are fully manned and stocked. Some huts offer booking in advance and, in these cases, cancellations are advised. If cancellations aren’t given and the party doesn’t show, it could indicate that someone is stuck on a mountain and needs help.Â
Â
Much simpler, temporary shelters are often used up on a mountain. The most common shelter on a mountain is a tent. They’re easy to pick up, easy to take down. If weather threatens, outcroppings of snow or rock are readily used to fortify them. A bivouac (bivy) is an open encampment that can give you a rough-and-ready resting and sleeping arrangement. Handmade shelters, such as a snow cave, may be dug out of the ground in at least four feet of snow—a very compact fit. A quinzee, on the other hand, is carved out of a pile of snow above ground. While these handmade shelters may not seem like much, they are so much warmer than being outside in the open freezing air. Igloos are surely a possibility, but it takes quite some time to build one. Time, while climbing a mountain, is always something you wish you had more of.    Â
Â
Aside from knowing what types of terrain to expect and how to manage them, what types of shelter are available, you must know what dangers to look for. The three main types of danger in mountaineering are things falling on you, yourself falling and bad weather. Things falling on you include rocks, snow (avalanches), ice and even another climber, or his gear. As a climber, you could loose your hold and drop into very thin air. You may go careening down a mountainside. If you survive the brutal tumble, hopefully you won’t land in a deep hole or a crevasse. Good grief! And a climber should never forget the ever-present threatening danger of the weather. While many dangers may be avoided based on the route you choose going up and down the mountain, no climber can ever escape the weather. You mustn’t ever ignore it. It could mean your life and don’t ever allow yourself to doubt it.    I  Â
Â
If you’re going to be a mountaineer, you’ve got to be serious. A few months preparation is not being serious—unless, of course, you’re already athletically fit and adept at another climbing activity. This is one of the most dangerous, most extreme nature sports there is.Â
Â
You must be fit. You have to be smart. Always be ready. And, please, don’t ever climb alone. You know you’re just asking for it. Be careful up there!
