NC23 RRJ Carb Qu

Post by Incognito400 »

Quick question from mechanical numpty....

Got a monster flat spot at 12k.

Bike runs standard 4-2-1 (well a delk copy) downpipes, Standard RRJ airbox. Newish standard air filter & straight through race can.

EDIT: blah.. blah...blah...

I know nothing...

Cheers

running better when cold says it is too rich... so is your filter clean? what jets you got now?

Filter's clean, Will check on Jet sizes when I get some float bowl gaskets (the ones on there don't look great). Given it had individual foam filters & a slightly more restrictive exhaust when I got it ...

Any ideas on a good size to start with?

easy way to tell if your rich or lean....see if it pulls thru the flatspot cleanly if you roll off a tad,if it does,its lean.

Get it done on a dyno so the power works right through

132.5

Rich or lean question answered. How was I living with that?

Sorted spectacularly with a suitable set of jets from Graham France.

Cheers Graham.

Dyno's on the to do list for curiosity.

132.5, bit big eh?! What size did you get from Mr F?
I recently discovered my carb had 102.5s, so I got a set of standard 105s (K model) from the man. Since I have restrictors and a straight-through can I don't really know what size I should have, but I don't want to be running lean - will get it on a dyno soonish.
Am I right in thinking can = upjetting, restrictors = downjetting?
