Changing from webers to bike carbs...?
Hi all
Im giving my webers one last rolling road session on monday to try and get them sorted. If that doesn't bear fruits, i will be changing to bike
carbs over the winter months!!
If I do end up going down this route, what you you recommend bike carb wise for a 1700 135 bhp crossflow??
I would ideally like them to be re-spaceable and easy to re-jet. TPS doesn't worry me as i have a 2D ignition solution already.
Thanks
Shaun

I know I know!
My car pulls like a train when flat out - but the progression when accelerating is all over the place at the moment!!

I run my bike carbs with a good old dizzy (zzr1100) and it pulls like a train from 850rpm ALL the way to 6000rpm (which is as high as i want to rev
it!!!) Bike carbs are the way forward, (bike engines are not  ) they need very little attention once set up too which is always a bonus. I got mine
from Bogg Bros, they rejetted them on the spot when i had a rolling road session with them.

I took inspiration from David Jenkins on here and used CBR600FX carbs. I picked them up for £25, made the inlet myself with a little help from
shorttrack and had them jetted on Boggs RR.
David's web site shows you how;

ZX6R carbs are cheap, easy to respace and have adjustable needles so would be a good choice.
