Re: flat spot / jetting
when you say open carbs i assume you mean no air filter and no airbox top or have you got the nc35 airbox top fitted? should of had a propper test ride before did oulton park on friday or should i say 1 lap in fist gear guttedCMSMJ1 wrote:no worries Lee..
I have the same issues on my race bike actually..
Fitted some open carbs, running 147 jets and it is too rich and messy. bogging down and making nasty noises.
As my first test is Weds and race on Sunday I am fitting std carbs, 118/120 with a normal box and filter. It won't be fast, but it will work and for now, that is good enough!

Re: flat spot / jetting
Not really, but you can restrict them in other ways. If you tap the air jets to take a allen head bolt you can then just drill this out to the required size (2mm).lee.pb wrote:is it possible to get the hrc velocity stacks from the uk?

Re: flat spot / jetting
Has it ever run since you had it? did it sit for a while and maybe needs the carbs cleaning out?

beleive the jets are a wee bit small for no filter (115), new plugs have been fitted. run ok with other carbs fitted and standard airbox. should have a second set of carbs this week going to speak to rick oliver about hrc carb kit and what jets

Re: flat spot / jetting
The 115 jets are small even with a filter....
I've just fitted 140s to my carbs that look like Dataracers (although not as shiny) and need to get them working.
I also run RVF carbs on my road NC30 - that has a filter, but no lid and uses 130 jets. (std is 108)

Re: flat spot / jetting
Are you running dynojet jets?
I'd still say 110 is too lean for a full system like that quill...have you any dyno sheets?
