Re: KZ400 "Dirty Bird" Cafe (Carb Question)
Wow that was a long and painful process. Good thing the weather has been pretty crappy here so it wasn't too painful watching my bike just sit their.
BUT... I finally got her running right. For the last month I toyed around with the idea of going 2-1 instead of using the stock carbs because jets are painfully hard to find for these stupid CV carbs. After attempting to order the jets from a local shop (for $14 each) and than finding out that they ordered them from someone who doesn't make them anymore, I finally found them online at jetsrus.com. $10 each would have sucked if they were the wrong size... but they are right. So I am happy. Runs like a champ!
Will post more pictures as I continue to add to the bike. Already making my "to do" list for next winter.
If you want to go 2-1 on your bike, or buy a couple Mikuni VM34's, I have 2 of them for sale in the "for sale" section
