rvf400 pilot screws

Post by Harryredchow »

Hi,

I am about to swap out the car rubbers on my rvf. The bike has an ethos twin stack exhaust .Jets are 115 all round with extra washers on the needles. It runs fine but has a slight flat spot around 6k. What are the recommended air screw settings for this setup? I don't think they are the issue but I want to check them while I have the carbs off.

I also have a Jack up plate to fit. What is the easiest way to lift the bike without an abba stand .Can Frisbee don't with s trolls Jack?

Thanks

On my UK vfr carbs I was running 122f 120r 2 1/4 turns out on the airscrews with ricks slide needles, had no flat spots with a ethos system but now have RLR rvf carbs with ram air and fuel pump.

The best way to get the back end up is to use a axel stand under the rhs rearset and the side stand to hold the bike up
