Carb spares.......
thanks Auke
After reading the many posts about carb problems on this board, yesterday I finally tackled my carb problem for once and for all. As I fitted an aftermarket pipe and filter I assumed my bike was running lean. Wrong...the symptoms were in fact indicating a rich mixture. Started with the secondary carb and today did a final needle drop on the primary. Just need to ride and confirm the last change is for the better and its sorted.
Local knowlwdge seems to indicate that needle and needle jet wear is common on the Aussie spec bikes imported here. I had to drop the secondary needle all the way down to get the bike to stop surging so I'm suspicious of the needle set on that carb.
Cheers
Gavin
