Thanks a lot for your video! Incredibly helpful! I'm doing it on my 86' currently but I struggle to find a 25x2,25mm shim.. Maybe you know where I can get it? Thanks a lot and have a nice day

Seems like that is an oddball, most places only had down to 2.3mm. But I found one here: a.co/d/2UV0YW1

Thank you for this video!! I have similar issue have replaced the starter relay twice. Battery as well. Hoping I can take motor out & check it as you showed this weekend. I can bump start it no problem. Hoping this will resolve the issue. 🙏

How did you get your carb sooo clean?? I used carb cleaners and still has a little oxidation.
@themotofirm28 күн бұрын
This carb was already pretty clean. But Napa has a spray, think it’s called aluminum brightener, helps clear up oxidation. Used it one engine cases, should work on the carb body.

Hello, what would you do for a 2007 gsxr 600 that starts and sometimes not? New battery and she was fine a day ago, then after she dont start again, I have an original clutch handle, but even in neutral with kickstand it does not want to start, it engages from time to time but starts just doesn't, or starts, or makes no noise, sorry for my english !

So there is a golden little piece there next to the main jet. Where does that go?
@themotofirm6 ай бұрын
Took a while to figure out what you meant, I assume at 3:32? That is the needle jet, basically a guide for the needle, and makes the hole visible from the inside when you’re lowering the needle down into place. It presses lightly into the carb body from the bowl side, before the main jet and jet holder go in. Countersunk (tapered bore) goes toward the needle. I don’t typically mess with them since they don’t do much and don’t really go bad, but maybe I replaced this one since the kit had it, not sure.

I've got a 92 750 Nighthawk. So much more simple. No air cutoff valves, no accelerator pumps. You do have a bank of 4 carbs of course. You have to go through all those passages, most miss that.

It doesn't work, save time get a manual tensioner, set it and forget it. I replaced my OEM with a manual on my 05 600RR in 2008 it's now 2024, I never had to adjust it 37,000 miles later

I made a tool by cutting a screwdriver shank to 21/2" Then bent the last half inch 90% useing a torch lighter. That gave laverage. Do this before buying anything. And turn counter clockwise to the left. To add tension.
