Carb Kit - Adds more low-end / midrange, if the proper main jet is selected, more top-end power. Easy to install and tune - no slide drilling. Suggest using a BMC replacement air filter for increased airflow. If your bike is running too rich at low rpm and cruise, order new Emulsion Tubes (needle jets) - below
you sent me (overnite, thank
you very much!) the ducati 900ss kit last month with needle jets (I
also sent you the pix of my naked ST with a factory pro jet kit) and
jeee-zusss! It may as well be a new bike. Float levels were 2-3mm high
and once adjusted and everything installed, the bike was perfect _ started
immediately idles smoothly and pulls hard. |
New main jet o-rings 6 pcs Mikuni # 007-790 $5 for 6 orings 2. |
New o-rings for Mikuni "press-in" n208099 main jets. If you are jetting older carbs, it is a good idea to get new main jet o-rings when buying a carb kit. |
CRZ-EMU-100120K |
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.

Lightweight Shift Centering Spring $49.95 Click Here to buy SPECIAL INTRO! $39.95 Just rode bike awesome shifting, smooth, smooth smooth thanks Mike Hoak August 2013 |
Lightweight Shift Centering Spring For when you decide that you want lighter feeling shift lever action for better feel. A lighter foot shift pressure is less unsettling. Decreases lever effort required to make a shift. Makes foot shift pressure more like other sportbikes. Since you are not having to push so hard to move the lever, it's easier to find neutral. Like your rearsets? But, no matter how you lube, shim, adjust the arcs, angles and lengths, it's still annoyingly stiff to shift? |

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 in the sweltering Mid Ohio heat of summer, I decided to make a float cage holder and sell 'em! I'd make a million $$!! | |
When I got back to work, I set up and made a pile of cute little flat braces. As I was sitting there, admiring my cleverness...... one of my parts guys wandered by and asked what was I making? I showed him that you could just take my clever little piece of aluminum and hold those float cages right tightly up into their seated position - so you could get consistent float height readings. | |
He says..... It looks like you could just put the float bowl on with the front holes on the bowl lined up with the rear holes on the carb body and slap some screws in and it would do the same thing........... |
|
I bought him lunch with the million $$ I didn't make.... Marc | |
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 “8â€ÂÂÂ
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. |
