But they are trick!! :lol:

Jets are easy. Any motorcycle shop can get you those. The needles....now that's another story. Do they come with needles, as those are unobtanium in the taper/diameters they need.

How's the copy of the HRC sets we have going? Anyone?

I would have thought you could just order keihin needles from the catalogue to suit these bad boys Mike?

Nearly all needle dimensions are available by the looks of it?

Hi Mike!

FCR setup slowly coming along. Lots of little bits and pieces to fabricate, though. While we're on the subject; do you have the lenght of the carb spigots (threaded "pipe' part connecting carb body and intake rubbers) measured from the actual carb body? I need to shorten the originals on my FCRs, but it's kind of a one-shot deal, too short and they're wasted.

Cheers/Lasse

Those are hot. I wonder how much lighter they must be than the stock items. Having had mine out enough times they weigh a ton :D :lol:

Yep, i have a set of fcr´s. I got them in austria with papers from HRC and Moriwaki.
But it is not easy to find the right setup.

Well, Here´s next winters project. After looking at Her Ruehl´s pics , I don´t think I am going to get away just machining some spacers, but anyway, I hope it´s worth the try. For the rest of the mortals (that is excluding michael) fcrs from a fzr600 with yzf600 heads :? . They will be here in a couple of weeks, and lets hope they are 32mm.

Michael, could you please help me out with the measures of the brackets and spacers?
And, how the hell do you get hold of all your stuff??? :worthy:
