| I noticed a difference from a few cheap mods.
1. Grind out the excess weld in the opening to the exhaust.
2. When they upgraded the Mikuni they didn't put a larger inlet manifold to match. $16.50 off Ebay for the correect size which I honed and matched to head and carby. The walls on the stock one were too thin to be honed out to the necessary diameter.
3. You might also notice that the throttle cable adjustment won't take out all the play. I super-glued a correctly shaped piece of PVC onto the twist-grip insert and reshaped with a dremel. Just making the throttle immediate and responsive made a big difference to the feel of the bike.
4. NGK plug
The MSO's I have seen standard, have been running too rich. They really need jetting. There is no point doing that until you have finished doing any head work etc. It would be good to get a sticky thread guide to jetting as well. |
