RVF carb question

Post by Tornado » Wed May 01, 2013 3:19 am

Hi guys,

With the throttle cam on the carb bank wide open, does the rear sync screw "normally" touch the bracket that runs down the center of the carb bank? I compared the unit on the bike with a spare set I have and both touch at about the same spot which is about 1/8 inch from the throttle cam stop...I'm wondering if anyone else has noticed this?

Thanks!

Maybe they've been screwed in too much.

I can't check yet but if it isn't normal then screw them all the way out and start again if you have a carb balancer.

The adjustment screw hits the bracket whether the screw is all the way in or all the way out on both sets of carbs. Any other ideas? Thanks.
