Thought I would finally show my parts bike for those playing at home. Obviously I've pilfered afew thing it did come with the rest in a box and started and ran but the carbs were in dyer need of a clean and I have since used that set in my runner but this one might end up a street fighter yet

I have acquired a terrible set of carbs from Tim today and my plan is to Frankenstein my 2 discarded sets of carbs into one good set.
The 2 sets

These carbs were butchered, stripped pilot mixture screws WTH! and the main jetting was set left to right
125,128,125,128 LOL how Tims bike even slightly ran with this is beyond me haha

Mate if u now some with a mill u could use a endmill and drill out that the best way if not dremel a flat centre punch and drill out 1/2mm smaller use a pick and try and crack the thread away had to do many time during apprenticeship long and painful but can be done with out damage

 

At this point in time I would like to say that I did not in any part do this to these carbs. Thank you your honour. Council you may complete your examination. Lol


Also I'm saying go a track bike. Purely so we can finally test what yourself and kiffsta said about the kwaka being the faster bike.

 

I don't understand how you strip a mixture screw this bad they aren't meant to be tight! Lol. Cheers mate I'll get it!

Thank god we didn't touch them...... Haha JK, I hope your new carbs are better

 

Haha no worrys

 

My new carbs a sweet as pie mate. But a Litetek seal kit does not hurt.

 

See how she goes on the road first mate, if it revs clean to 18000rpm and goes like a shower of **** you don't need new seals. If it bogs down then you might or tuning. I can help with both.

 

Now I got that vacuum line sorted should be 100% better.

 

Cheers murdo, this was my plan. I was hoping for an even easier way

 

Just repeat what we did today

 

Allright so I gave the good bits a clean and threw together a set of carbs today just stuck them in to the carby boots and fed a little fuel into them and it fired and ran so yeeha.

No luck with removing that pilot screw. snapped the easy out FFS! its not completely wrecked.. both sets of carbs carb no1 has a housing issue DAMN IT!

 

Because of how tight it was in there, I has hand turning it and it still let go!

 

Not easily I will have to get some other tools. It's on the too hard table for now, I'll come back to it.

 

Ok with it being stuck best way is to edm (electric discharge machining) while as a fitter if a tap snapped in a job this was best way to remove without damage

 

How do I go about doing this/getting it done?

 

Place we use to get done was called product engineering at Stafford dunno if they still do but assume they would give them a buzz sure it won't cost much
