Ivan’s UK fitting
« on: 01 July 2023, 04:35:12 pm »
Hi all, Got my Fazer 1000 out last week and started for the first time in quite a few months.
Starts on choke and runs and rides perfectly over about 2,000 rpm
Misfire and judders under 2,000rpm.
Filled up with shell fuel and no better unfortunately.
I’m thinking this new low grade fuel has probably clogged up one the low rpm jets?


If that’s the case and carbs have to come out, then maybe it’s a good time to fit an Ivan’s kit.
Stock everything inc exhaust.


I know that Mike / Falcon used to fit these kits in the uk but think he has stopped.


Is there anyone who who has good experience and is fitting and setting up this kit in the uk?
Midlands near Lichfield.


Best regards
Ade

Sounds like a bit of blockage in the pilot jet(s), possibly a little gummed up after standing for months.

Yes, good idea to fit Ivan's kit if you're pulling the carbs to clean the pilots.  For most owners, removing/refitting the carbs is the hardest part of the installation, although it's actually pretty easy if done the right way. :)

Give me a shout if you want any advice.
