I think you're gonna love it.
datadavid said:Sure, keihins are everywhere. Jets are dirt cheap. I put 140's in mine just to be on the safe side. Haven't been through the gears yet so i cant say if its 100% yet!
Think i paid 20$ for three jets at my local specialist.

Tune-A-Fish said:I was at a Skuzi dealer with a shitload of what looks like old NOS parts filling 14 foot shelves and I asked for pilot jets... what did the guy say... "What year and model is it, we don't sell much of those"... the whole time he is asking I'm looking straight at a stack of yellow boxes on a shelf above his head.
Long story short I got half of what I needed but the boxes were never restocked or shit tossed in the wrong hole... I keep looking for them old boxes to show up so I can buy them and now I will rob jets off carbs before scrapping anything.
MotorbikeBruno said:You are correct, it would not run. It would backfire and pop and sound terrible all while making you think you broke something internal. HA!
Interesting on running worse! What do we have those mixture screws at right now again?
With all of the problems and looking at the interior of the carbs, it's very possible that it's just worth finding another set. I'll check my local CL for you. Usually an 850 being trashed around here
jpmobius said:Well it wouldn't hurt to check the ignition wiring. It is entirely possible to get it right on one cylinder and have the other two swapped. Of course it would only run on the one cylinder, but very likely you would have serious backfiring etc. I would be looking for something a bit more obvious than the fine points of the carbs for a problem. Usually if the float heights are off a bit, the problems are pretty slight. This is different than a hole in one of the floats. Same with the pilot circuit. It is NOT a 1/4 turn issue. That is different than a blocked air jet or broken off needle. The point is that it seems like your troubles are bigger than a not more obvious issue unless I am just reading all this wrong.
Back on the ignition, I would go through it and KNOW it is not the issue. Make sure the timing is correct on all three cylinders, and the advance is working properly. Check for good consistent spark on ALL cylinders. Make sure all three pipes are getting similarly hot. Swap the coils and see of the bad cylinder moves. You can do all this pretty quickly and easily and even if you are pretty confident the issue is with the carbs, it is a small price to pay for confidence.
