Re: K1 carb refit after 4 years in storage
Slowly getting there, carbs refitted but waiting for some other bits before I try to fire the old girl up.
Meanwhile I’ve been trying to diagnose a sticky throttle and while I think I’ve sorted it (cable adjustment) I realise I have routed the idle adjust cable incorrectly. On closer inspection I think I may have also routed the rear choke cable incorrectly too. Can anyone confirm does it go above or below the frame crossmember that is between the two carbs? Currently I have it sandwiched between the carb frame and the crossmember but it looks like it might wear over time. Trying to attach a photo to help explain. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Re: K1 carb refit after 4 years in storage
Decided to remove the carbs and refit the cable below the frame, glad I did - the choke cables were partially seized allowing only about 30% travel. All freed up now, waiting for new choke O-rings before refitting.
Anyone used motorcyclespareparts.eu before? Just wondering how quick the delivery is |
