Phil are the carbs you've fitted mikuni. I've been looking at both mikuni and Keihin's but can't find any info or formula's to work out the correct size for a 2.0 litre. Was hoping to buy second hand bike carbs from a breakers.

Did you find a big improvement on the throttle response with the bike carbs over the stroms.

What size triumph are the carbs off.

Did you fit different size jets in each carb, I've read in a bike set up for example #125, #120, #125 main jet on a triple set up.
31 May 2017, 5:42am
no same in each carb they came off a 1100 trident the main jets was same 132.5 they was too much over feeling went down 130/127 but it runs well 125 did same with slow running jet ...its a pain as each time you have to do six and end up with lots jets ...it not same for you have 2000 ....mine s2600 tick over s crew is under carb very hard to get to when on car and one for each carb am one turn out used a colour tune as well

Looking good Phil, nice to see a Dyane joining the convoy. Not sure if you noticed, but someone's planted a load of weed behind your car...
