\nEven with gloves on, scrubbing away like this\u2014dirt doesn’t come off that easily.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"DSC_7748\"<\/a>
\nThe inside of the carburettor is pretty dirty, and it looks like it’s been partially disassembled before.<\/p>\n

\"DSC01961\"<\/a>
\nSteam and hot water work their magic, lifting oil grime away steadily.<\/p>\n

\"DSC01964\"<\/a>
\nI checked and adjusted both the float level and the actual fuel surface.<\/p>\n

\"DSC01967\"<\/a>
\nNow we’re heading into the extra-fussy territory. Idle adjustment is honestly such a pain. At this point, the design below the neck is the same, so that’s reassuring.<\/p>\n

\"DSC01970\"<\/a>
\nI dislike this cast design, and with the float too\u2014I’m glad it didn’t warp unexpectedly.<\/p>\n

\"DSC01971\"<\/a>
\nThe adapter that got burned again<\/p>\n

\"DSC01974\"<\/a>
\nThe angle and position that don’t strain things allow for smooth, light adjustment. That Bandit 250 I installed years ago has a short cable and feels a bit awkward.<\/p>\n

\"DSC_7762\"<\/a>
\nIf you position it too tight, it’ll twist, so we ended up with this height.<\/p>\n

\"DSC01985\"<\/a>
\nAfter synchronizing, the carburettor work is done.<\/p>\n

\"DSC01980\"<\/a>
\nI also replaced the choke knob that broke off. Looks like it could work on the GSF1200 too.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"DSC01979\"<\/a>
\nThat’s how it is. The idle screws VR2 and VR3 are already waiting in the wings, so we’ll get to those another day!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
