Hey guys, my pilot screw setting is 2.25 turns, that's how it was when I took them out to clean them and they run fine on it.

But the haynes manual says 1.625 turns, should I adjust it to that?

No i would put it back to 2.25 - if it aint broke

2.25 is a lean setting on rvf carbs.. the 30 carbs specifiy 2 a bit turns out, but 35 is 1 and 5/8

lol that was like asking the audience on who wants to be a millionaire and getting equal votes for each response -_-

Who's going to be the decider?

Well..I doubt Jeff is going to argue whether he is more of a geek than I!

Depends on your total setup but it would seem that some clever sod has taken as gospel the write up Cammo did for NC30 carbs and applied it to NC35 carbs...unless you have NC30 carbs on your NC35...

No you are Mark no question
And as you say above it is bound to be one of the 2 things you mention above.

@V4WTF do you know what carbs you have on, and what jets you are running?

You can always try it.

Note the exact position of each of the pilot screws on each carb before you adjust.

Can always go back...

This website:

http://www.vsource.org/VFR-RVF_files/Brvf400r-mi.htm

lists it as 1 and 5/8ths turns out, for what it's worth.

Hey Jeff, I have NC35 carbs with 108 jets on all 4 and 35 pilot.

Standard set up then! I'd go with the standard 1 5/8 turns for the pilots!
Standard exhaust system too?
