And swept up the gravel at the end of your road?bigspanishmarty wrote:yesterday was mental busy for me, carl, and my mate chris...aka the mechanic
befrore they arrived i striped the bodywork of the bikes ready to complete a long list of jobs
heres what we achieved
re-routed and repaired the wiring loom
semi repaired the o/s rearset
fitted new chain
fitten new kill switch
fitted new undertray and rear led lights...(bastid of a job)
had another tinker with the carbs
set the tps to bang on 500
fitted a different bottom to the airbox
fitted a new 100% brighter headlight bulb
fitted a freshly painted front subframe
i also got the chance to tighten all the fixings on the fairing and sort out the indicators
the only things we couldn't do was the 19ltr tank conversion, this was my fault tho because i needed to buy a certain part and i couldn't find one at short notice, still i hope to sort it out next week.
we also run out of time and didn't get a chance to repair the minor damage to the exhaust.
carl and chris were fantastic, i even got to see carls fish impressions
i'm over the moon because i have a fuel warning light for the first time
and fingers crossed no more blown fuse's
in fact i'm just about to finish bolting the screen and fairing lowers back on....
thanks again lads for all your help...

Bugger they looked right size and look the same as the pilots that are in the constant velocity carbs?lloydiecbr wrote:Them pilot jets won't fit as they are not for a cv carb :-) I think

No but it is a series 21 jet which is what we need for our carbs. N424-21In the listing is say what carbs they fit
And it has no mention of the cv
the ones i got were off a crf450 - same part number. i found the 50s worked best for me but had to tweak the mixture screw to get em spot on.seb421 wrote:lloydiecbr wrote:Them pilot jets won't fit as they are not for a cv carb :-) I think
to confirm just measured them against a pilot from a storm CV carb and its exact same measurements and holes are in same place also
