Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / Carbs bare threads?
« on: 05 February 2016, 06:06:37 pm »
Hi!

Has anyone hot any idea on what goes in these bare threads? I'm looking at the underside of the carb with the inlet to the engine facing away. It is on the left next to the mixture screw? On the right is coolant lines, but on my carbs to the left is just empty? There's a hole in the bottom so something must go there!?

Or is there anyone in the UK that can do the boots well?

Which leads me to believe I may find the carbs have been drilled etc already. I know the jets were changed for the dyno, needles and mains were changed back to standard... What tools do you use to port the boots? And exactly how much do you take out? I can see it being difficult to get them exactly the same?

Good thing we've got battery chargers that run on petrol and take us places ;)

MB kit is on it's way. I'll match the boots when I have the carbs off. I'm pretty certain the old boots were matched as they had marks in from being ported, but they were so cracked I didn't want to keep them.

My new battery came today at 12.3. The bike struggled to start (beginning to think starter relay is shot), after a 30 minute ride it measured 12.83. Much better :)

Have to admit, it surprises me that there's no info where people have jetted the bike themselves? Every bike I've owned I've jetted through trial and error and there's loads of info about different needles, mains etc

Then jet kit comes soon :). I did it because I have the workshop available. It idles a lot better now, suggesting some alteration. The dates of the invoices I have show that the dyno was done after the airbox was refitted. I wasn't too fussed if it upset the bike as a second hand airbox is pennies.

Which kitshould I be buying with hacked box, full akro and k&n? It's definitely improved, and removed a bit of the flat spot I could feel, but obviously if there's a kit made specifically to suit, its better than stabbing in the dark!

Not the best air fuel ratio!

I just went from the fact that the bike came with a dyno sheet, 131rwhp. And was very rich 5000 rpm up.There is also a receipt for fitment of a standard airbox, as an owner previous must have had pods. The bike runs really nice, but is clear that it's running rich up high.

I've cut the box as per the pictures, then run a sandblaster in it pointing in the direction air should be flowing. Looks good to me :D!

With regards to the link that was posted, very useful, next time the carbs are off (I'll clean and balance them in the not too distant future) I'll have a look and really see what I've got!

Well the bike has a full akro and has clearly been rejetted. But came with a receipt for fitment of a new airbox as it must have had pods fitted. It's running a little rich, so the easiest way to lean it is to open her up to breathe. It's got a k&n, but the airbox looks really restrictive.

General / Mikuni BST diaphragm vent size?
« on: 30 January 2016, 04:54:32 pm »
Hi all!


Need to know the size of the vent hose required for the diaphragm side of the carb on my FZS1000 (BST 37), last owner decided vent hoses weren't necessary...


Thanks!


Also, first post, took a break from sportier bikes since my license became a bit colourful with points, but it's clean again now, so I thought I'd go for a Fazer... WHAT A BIKE!
