If no one else answers this for you, you can obtain repair manuls on line. have you contacted a dealer for this information? Sometime they will help you, especially if you are buying parts from them. Basic info is that chains have master links in them, look for this and take the clips off the master link and the chain will come apart. I hope this helps somewhat.

dont be so tight???? if you refit the old head gasket you will be striping the motor down again in a week to fit a new gasket,,,but its your bike?,,,talk about sinking the ship for a pennys worth of tar??

drivers side or under battery box.

It sounds like to much fuel or to little air, as it is a quad the air filter may be filthy,buy a new one first.also check that nothing has got stuck in the air funnel, cleaning cloth rat nest ,seriously it happens. If this does not help ,the lambda sensor in the exhaust which smells the amount of carbon dioxide in the exhaust and adjusts the fuel to suit may be fault ,also a common problem.

yes of course you do if you don't in cool weather the carb will ice up.

Clean stud & nut and secure with locktight.

Behind the radiator on the left side. It is the device with cooling fins, even though the electronic parts are embedded in rubber paste.The location isn't ideal and sudden defects leave people stranded so what people do is relocate the regulator/rectifier to a cooler place. Perhaps to the air inlet, under the air filter. Follow the three, mostly, yellow cables that originate from the stator when you don't find it behind the radiator.

What do you mean by "Midway"? How old is this motorbike? What exactly did you do to clean the carburettor? Is it a new spark plug and a new, clean air filter? Did you empty the fuel tank to remove the fuel tap to clean the filter on the inside of the tap? Is it doing anything else? Things like - is it hard to start, has heavier exhaust smoke or it has a rough and uneven idle.

A broken timing chain is the most likely cause, the piston is hitting an open valve, or you have a dropped valve or a stuck valve. Another possibility is something jamming behind behind the side covers.The key would be how you discovered this? Driving along at 105 and the engine stopped, or ???https://www.google.com/search?q=2009+suzuki+boulevard+timing+chain+or+timing+belt....

You can't, the computerized system is in place to stop exactly what you are trying to do, Steal the bike without the correct credentials. You can't reprogram or over-ride the computer. You need a bike electrician.

The crank case will be almost as hot as the oil flowing around the engine, lubricating the bearings.

Thinking you meant Raider and not 'rider', and this is a Suzuki motorcycle and should not be in Cars and Trucks category. Edited and moved. https://www.google.com/search?q=raider+150+carb+tensioner
