RO road needle kit.

Post by mollers » Tue Jan 07, 2014 10:32 am

Morning Guys ;)

Got an UK spec NC30 (standard) with that horrible mid range flat spot which seems to be getting worse :? .
It dosnt seem to be reving out cleanly now as well so gonna strip and give them a full service. Has anyone tried
RO road needle kit in a UK spec ?? or should I try the washer route ? any tips or hints ?

It has a new vac pipe and tap kit fitted. Was gonna fit new jets, do the float heights etc
Any advice on very welcome :grin:

Cheers
Chris

^^^ this but bear in mind they are UK carbs not Jap spec as detailed in the guide, for example slides will be metal and jetting is opposite front to back compared to the jap spec carbs

All NC's respond well to RVF carbs unless your racing
