After replacing the cam, the idling is a bit off.
It’s not that I can’t ride it, but it just doesn’t feel right. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I thought it would go in the “rich” direction, but
when I checked with PE WIDEBAND<\/a> it was “really lean”…. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I tried to fake it with PS…. and it got a bit better. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The CVK needle can’t basically change the number of steps ( \uff1b\u2200\uff1b)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As expected from Keihin. Don’t mess with it, huh? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was wondering if there’s a needle where you can adjust the steps…. and while patrolling…. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And it was also being sold on Rakuten. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since I couldn’t really get any information from anyone, I picked it up as a year-end toy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The stock one can’t adjust the needle position like this.
I wished it had the flexibility like Mikuni ( \uff1b\u2200\uff1b)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

At first glance, it really looks like a stock needle shape.
It has a gentle taper and a stubby straight diameter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s packaged carefully like on the left.
Is the appeal of this sharp tip the reason for making the needle longer?….

It’s a pretty unusual idea ( \uff1b\u2200\uff1b)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The lengths are different. I’m a bit worried… actually quite worried…. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The straight diameter is a bit thinner, which I personally like. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Inazuma 1200 hasn’t had its carb disassembled yet since I bought it, so the slide valve is dirty. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I basically don’t do much with carbs,
but since it’s mine…. I wet blasted it. <\/p>\n\n\n

Once the fuel it was craving was supplied, it got better.

I don’t want you to misunderstand, but this is an “adjustment needle”<\/strong> so just installing it won’t give you performance.
Also, I’ve only lightly ridden in this area, so there are still many unknowns. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It might be fun to do some tuning yourself or play around a bit.
I wonder what effect that pointy tip has.
