Thats not a UK spec slide is it? cant remember what they look like but there different to the jap spec slides

Tony's right, that's a UK spec slide. Pretty sure they're slightly heavier and made out of metal rather than plastic.

i did a search and found out they are uk carbs indead why the fella was running 124 mains is beyond me though. and no shims under any of the needles. iv bought all the part and hopefully they will be hear befor the weeks out so i can fit them

thanks lads for the info.

I got a funny feeling uk carbs don't ude a needle washer, could be wrong tho :)

I use 124 DJ mains with that SP1 system I have, even with the standard motor I had it fuelled lovely

i have also heard this, i think your right Tony

I think you guys are right, there s no point messing with the jetting till iv passed my test and run her. I will keep her as she is just replace the screws and gaskets and fit new 124 jets to match what's there for now. You never know, it could be set up well now, I won't know till I ride her. I orderd some washers and 120 n 122 jets alswel, so those will be lying around if needed. I also orderd a high flow airfilter, cos the one that come out didn't look standard....

took the rest of the week off work so i can get me carbs removed/checked/cleaned/refitted...... and get some shit done around the house that needs doing too tbh......thats about the last thing on the vfr list too i think, part from checking valve clearance, might let a dealer do that, only costs a 50 dont it. i hate going anywhere near engines.

Costs more than that..and it is easy, so get on it lad.

It is time consuming and new shims cost a fiver....so save the dollar and sort it
