thanks for the response guys. I am a member of xt225.com and usually go there for help but for some reason I can't access it from here. I thought the site was down or perhaps some issues with the DNS server from senegal. Who knows. I checked the spark plugs and they were very used, replaced them on both bikes. That helped a little. Considering all the sand, I think something just got in there and I need to clean them thoroughly. I am just a little worried since I have never messed with carbs before.
I plan to do a full trip report soon. We have come all the way from the east cost of the US. Shipped to Barcelona and then down from there along the coast. It's been great so far.
Speaking of XT600's, tons of them around here. I've seen at least 10 just in Dakar and several down the petite cote as well.
We're off tomorrow to Casamance, then Guinea Bissau, Guinea, Mali, Burkina Faso, Togo, Benin and then perhaps as far as South Africa.
We'll keep you posted and I'll get some pics up in a trip report soon.
Thanks for anymore help on the issue.
Gael
