Hey,
I got a 2000 model zx6r, I built the bike up as a project and installed a highflow race filter, and a yoshi system that was already on the bike.
Rejetting for me was essential, as after completion of the project, the bike was running really lean, and bucking under acceleration. Basically it ...

Regulator/rectifier Question

Hi all,

a carb tune AND balance, maybe they mean the same thing. Carb tuning takes 5 minutes, order carbtune II from the uk. If they're talking about tuning your carbs to your engine systems setup, for $100 thats pretty awesome. So they're going to rejet your carbs, set your needles and float heights for ...

I completely disagree with I-K, if you want the most out of your mods, go for it, running the engine lean will do more damage to your wallet in the long run than the added fuel consumption costs anyway.

I have a J1, bmc RACE air filter, full yoshi and 4 degree's of ignition advance. The jetting on ...

i just used electrical tape and covered over the ends of those two pipes, instead of adding more pipe to connect them together. The benefits are that it gets rid of that crackling noise when u come off of hard acceleration. Sometimes there's still a little noise, most likely due to the fuel hitting ...

have spent a day and a half working with the jet kit and advancer, and its not only sorted out the flat spots, but has made the bike insane fun to ride. Ended up with 160 1/4 162.5 2/3, richest settings on the needles without using the spacer (5th slot down), 9mm float height and 2.5 turns on the ...

i have the same thing on my rgv250M, except it only notches once and it can be big, its seriously annoying, and would be dangerous if a rider didnt know about it.

Its not a brake fluid issue, i think its the Orings or whatever they use on the master cylinder. It dosent happen for me all that often ...

im ordering a jet kit today, do jet kits come with emulsion tubes? also how the hell do i know the original size? there's noway i can measure that accurately externally let alone internally. I think i'll assume they're fine until i've got the jet kit and finished tuning as with that and the ignition ...

i did actually try engaging the enrichener circuit whilst riding, it didnt buck real bad, but it wasnt right either, made the throttle less responsive. im not gonna ride around with the enrichener on anyway.

the bike is stuttering and staggering badly, well it was until i richened up thte needles, then it got a lot better at low speed. This is why i think its a lack of fuel flow problem. If you think the stuttering and jolting is a too rich problem, i'll try leaning the needles right out. im pretty sure ...

i always remembered it as 'bad boys rape only young girls but virgins go without. just as a point to note, my resistor was also a 100ohm, with a 5% tolerance. (my multimeter rated it at 102 ohm). Perhaps this wattage is important, i used the resistor out of a 99 barrel, worked on my 00 model. How ...

whilst i agree with you, funding at the moment is an issue, and i'd rather tune it myself and get braided lines than pay someone with a dyno to do it.

factory pro has a detailed but straightforward tuning guide, and as a bonus i love to do this stuff myself anyway.

If i had the money i'd buy the ...
