carb adjustment

Usually carb kits have a few main jets, a new needle and maybe a slow jet/screw.


I've fart-arsed around tuning mine and with dyno time found that even with exhaust, induction and engine mods, the original carb settings were best.


I probably spend 2-3 hunge plus loads of time finding that out too.


If you can whack open the throttle from say 3k rpm to red line in 3rd gear without any bogging or flat spots then you've got it about right.


Carb fiddling is pretty easy and if you're going to do it just change one thing at a time!

 

Thanks for the insight mate I might just leave it for the time being then :)
