RVF not running quite right after carb clean
Posted: Sat Jul 07, 2012 12:47 pm
Took my RVF for its MOT today and whilst it passed, it wasn't running quite right on the way there or back. Just to recap I've done the following:
-Carbs off cleaned
- float heights checked and adjusted
-main jets replaced with GF 108 dynojet replica kit
- Rick Oliver HRC replica carb springs fitted
- New Carb rubbers fitted
- Air screws set at 1 and 5/8 open
I set the bike up with a carb tune pro and got all the carbs synced. it idles fine. It's difficult to describe but the bike feels like its holding back throughout the rev range, won't pull cleanly and just feels fluffy. On part throttle it just sounds to be misfiring.
I'm not sure where to start looking, as it could be a multitude of things, just wondering whether to try bigger jets. I know most of you guys recommend larger Kehin jets 120 ish all round.
thanks
Dan
