Z1000r Carbs

#1 PostAuthor: Skid Mark » Wed Dec 23, 2020 11:14 am

Well, with this new lock down in place and the bike in a thousand pieces there isn't much else to do so I started stripping the Carbs... :ghostface What a mess!
two of the four Screws in side the bowl that ( I guess) the needle seats into were sheard off.
Can the Main jet sleeve that the needle travels along be removed easily, and if so how?
Also, I see there are sets of service kits available on Ebay, some are more complete than others, any recommendations on ones to use or avoid?
Cheers
Phil

Ouch, looks like you’ve got some contaminates in there.
If you want to do them yourself, there’s a brass washer to take off then you can tap them out with a punch. With that gunge they might be a bit tight so I’d do them in the house at room temperature with a plastic or ally punch.
