Bike carbs are on :-D Got it running but need to drill main jets out and set up the ignition.

Fitted a facet fuel pump today as my regulator could not stand the pressure from the standard injection pump.

All i have got left to do is rejet it and sort out the throttle as there is not alot of throttle pedal movement.

took some inspiration of you wi tuning a 1,0 i fitted a gt cam n 1.3 throttle body and i noticed a big difference bet urs must be rapid :)

Be extremely careful if your drilling jets out. The best way to do it is ofcourse with proper machinerey,

If you have to do it by hand, i'd recommend getting a pin vice, and drilling them slowly by hand.

Thanks. Yeah it does go well, pulls much better at the bottem end and spins up quick. I need to get a rev limiter :-D

Looks sweet dude inthe middle of bike carbin mine 1300spi, any tips dude?? Did you make tha heat shield urself?? Fancy makn me 1:)

Thanks

yeah i made the heat shield myself its just a sheet of aluminum painted black. Could have been a bit bigger but did not have alot of ally left. I don't think it works well as a heat shield but I just wanted to cover up my standard exhaust.
