I've done this Carb Removal on both my Honda Hornet CB600FY & CB600F3, it's easier to loosen off back Carb rubbers, remove Battery & Airbox completely, & use heatgun to soften Rubbers a little first, the it's easy

Ha yes bud once spent hours typing to fit thundercat cards. 10 minutes with heatgun and they were on in 2 mins.

I've just removed and cleaned the carbs (jets, emulsifying tubes, idle screws etc) on my 2005 bandit 650. Like this Hornet they were blocked and I had to use a carb cleaning kit with hair thin wires to remove the crap. When you were removing the carbs I remember thinking, when I was in that same situation, why oh why didn't they allow another 2mm clearance between the rubbers, the job would be so much easier! Great video as always Steve, thanks for posting; looking forward to part 2.

I had the same issue with removing the carbs, I just removed my carbs, found it easier to remove the air box, and try to release the band clamps by rotating them with a flat head as they were stuck to the inlets, after that they popped out a lot easier. to remove the air box, is a few pipes the battery and one screw.

Old carb rubbers on inline 4s are a nightmare, might want to talk the owner into buying new ones for the refit or it will be another hand to carb combat session 🤣👍

Make sure the owner sorts his regulator rectifier. I’m swapping mine out soon.

A definite weak point on the Honda bikes. There is a way to swap a Yamaha one in.

Removing tank? Push forward and lift rear. It's the fuel tap that interferes with carb#1 diaphragm cover. The "choke" (fuel enricher?) cable is easiest done just after removing tank. The job is alot easier if you remove the airbox ASAP (which requires battery removal). And I'd suggest remove the "snorkel" to get easier access to that rear holding bolt. Airbox lifts out of left side only. Removing the throttle cables is easiest done by - remove push cable, then opening the butterflies, wedging open and then the pull cable... (but I find the push cable is not ordinarily required as the springs are awesome - but may be required by law). Oh, just for sh!tz'n'giggles, replace all the vacuum hoses. Regarding the float bowl screws... either use a proper JIS screwdriver and/or use a rattle gun with proper fitting bit. I know you work on so, so many bikes, but these CB600F (1998-2006) are a pain for the carb removals, but easy (easier) if the above procedure is followed. (I have 2 of these CB600F (2005 and 2006) series and am quite fluent) Thanks again... nice to see these bikes (even with manky carbs!)

hi i have a problem with the exact same bike. but mine is one time accelerating fine and then 2 seconds after it runs on 2 cylinders and doesn't go over 5'000rpm. i tested cleaning the carbs one by one to not mix parts. i tried a known working cdi unit from a friend's bike. i tried replacing my ignition coils and wires. it has new sparkplugs. it has a new crank position sensor. i tired testing all the wires with a multimeter. i tried replacing the fuel tap. i tested for intake leaks. and i even removed the clear rubber boot that sits nex to the airbox intake. i am at a loss here.

ti sei complicato inutilmente il lavoro... l'airbox va tolto e poi si tolgono i carburatori... per togliere l'airbox è semplicissimo... si toglie la batteria... poi airbox e poi carburatori... e tutto diventa più semplice
