Ducati Monster 750, M750, 98-00
The smaller power strokes, lower gearing and importantly, price make it one of the best Ducati choices if "in town" driving is a primary use. There were lots of them sold in San Francisco - The M750 has enough power and smoothness to be happy on the backroads, too. |

Factory Pro's Marc Salvisberg's attention to detail in testing and design and the fact that Factory Pro uses an EC997 dyno and a real, 4 Gas EGA for detailed data instead of a common dealership level dyno and "air fuel ratio" for product development, gives you the Internet's #1 Ducati choice for best real world power and driveability over other jet kits for the M750. Some dealerships who still have dealership level dynos, who have to "tune to af ratios" instead of Best Power, will try to sell that "other company's" jet kit because it "works well enough to sell" and it's a bit cheaper and they can buy direct and make a few bucks more on it. The Factory Pro kit adds more low-end / midrange, if the proper main jet is selected, more top-end power. Easiest of the carb kits to install and tune.No slide drilling! Suggest using a BMC replacement air filter for increased airflow. And YES, as always, float height is required for proper tuning and carb with adjustable float heights, like the Ducati's. Make float height setting easier! LOOK! |

![]() Replace worn bare brass needle jets in stock carbs with Factory Pro's own stock replacement nickel plated needle jets. The needle, stock or aftermarket, will wear the needle jet orifice oblong - causing excess fuel to flow at cruise and low rpm. Additionally, the fuel that does get released is in larger, less burnable droplets. Replace the emulsion tubes / needle jets if there is more than 10k miles of varied use or 5k miles of in town driving on the bike before trying to tune. You will save time and energy. Note that, with fuel level adjustments, you can make some mixture adjustments with the "fuel level", as adjusted by "float height" changes.

![]() TL-float height gauge $49.95 |
The only way to easily and accurately measure float heights. Works on nearly every carburetor. Yes! This is the wicked, cool, Factory Pro approved, we don't make any money on it, dealio made just for adjusting float heights. Unchanged since the days of when it was a special Honda tool for adjusting the S65 and S90 carbs back in the 60's. And, yes, you can also use a set of vernier, or digital or dial calipers and get the same results as the coolio $49.95 Special Tool. But then, you wouldn't have the coolio tool to amaze your friends! Make float height setting easier! LOOK! |
| Float Height Setting Trick for 38mm "Mik's" | |
| One of the problems with
setting the float height on the 38mm downdraft Mikuni's that come
on Ducati's, yzf 750's, tdm 850's and fzr1000's, is that the darn
white plastic "float cage" keeps popping out of the carb body unless
you hold it in. When you hold it in with your fingers, you always flex the cage frame and distort the reading that you are setting the float height at..... Aaarrggghhh!! :-) After spending 45 minutes setting some yzf750 carbs (same carb body as the Duc) in the sweltering Mid Ohio heat of summer, I decided to make a float cage holder and sell 'em! I'd make a million $$!! That reminds me, as I was doing
that, a vp named Paul from dj came up to the team I was working
for, stood in front of me (It wasn't raceday and I was incognito)
and started telling the team owner why the dj kit was better than
the Factory kit... The team had taken out the dj kit races ago and
was running stock needles when they switched to our carb kit....
and that's what they told him. I added that it would probably be
better, too, to know who he's taking in front of in the future.......
and any time he wanted to do a blind track comparison of the dj
kit vs the fp kit, I was game. |

| When I got back to work,
I set up and made a pile of cute little flat braces. As I was sitting there, admiring my cleverness...... one of my parts guys wandered by and asked what was I making? I showed him that you could just take my clever little piece of aluminum and hold those float cages right tightly up into their seated position - so you could get consistent float height readings. |

| He says..... It looks like you could just put the float bowl on with the front holes on the bowl lined up with the rear holes on the carb body and slap some screws in and it would do the same thing........... |

the million $$ I didn't make....

Hello. Here’s the pics you asked for! Thanks for the help, the bike runs BEAUTIFULLY now, lots more power! The front end now comes up on the throttle – whereas it didn’t before! There’s another pic in there too where I used a bar code to measure the bowls. I found this a lot easier than using a ruler. I measured the bar next to the number “8” on my barcode to be the recommended height on my bike – 14mm. -Mike Beary
Thanks Mike, for the pics! |

The extension of the laboratory for engines of the
Swiss Federal Institute of Technology was completed in about 1935.
Its architect was Rudolf Otto Salvisberg (1882-1940). He had a
successful career in Berlin but returned to Switzerland after the
advent of the Nazis. His architectural style was somewhat similar to
that of Erich Mendelsohn. The staircase of the laboratory is in
normal use but well preserved. Edited to the tunes of Chemical Residue by Herbie Hancock. |

Maybe in next rewrite, he'll fix the ignition timing and dyno chapters... Otherwise great book with great starting ideas. |
