Exup 1000

I agree with you, they are expensive.

saw this one on ebay for 45 CARBS might just use the body on your old one The carbs are Mikuni BDST38. have a google, as quite a few bikes used them, you might be able to pick up a decent sent one for cheap you should also strip the carbs into single carbs and sell them, you will be able to retrieve...

I had the same problem with the pet cock https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/8mm-Quick-Release-Fuel-Line-Coupler-Petrol-Hose-Pipe-Connector-Shut-Off/131319526438?hash=item1e9340f426:g:jygAAOSwe2FZ1kXT This should solve that problem. disconnect the pump from the carb and put the end in a jar then turn the bik...

air leak maybe soapy water time?

but I had a similar problem and I ended up cleaning my fuel pump and my fuel lines also cleaned out my tank and the petcock. There was a huge amount of crap in my one

would a worn float needle valve cause this problem?

good call. I will have a check tomorrow morning in daylight. I checked the over flow tubes nothing coming out off them.

thank you for getting back:)

Hi Took the bike for a ride this week and it was idling rough and bogging down. Pulled the spark plugs found two them were covered in black soot/carbon. I cleaned the plugs and started her back up. I noticed that fuel is leaking from the slider needle were the throttle body is. I have attached a pic...

I used the washing up liquid/water and spray bottle method and found my carb intake manifold rubbers were cracked and solid as a rock

you are exactly right right about the torque

The drain bolt is 43Nm and the Filter bolt is 15Nm. I did the drain bolt up went away to clean the filter housing and forgot to change the torque settings and you can guess the rest.

It was a hard pill to swallow and very humbling

thanks nuggit

I will buy one. Yes you describe my feelings in one sentence

Hopefully someone can help me, Messed up badly, was doing an oil/filter change and when putting the filter housing I put a large hairline crack at the front. Is their anyway to repair it? - do I have to buy a second hand replacement housing? - I have seen a few fzr Oil Filter Housing for sale will a...

Oh also check you fuel pump connections. you should hear it prime when you turn the key

My Man it sounds like you are having exactly the same problem I had when converting to a street fighter This happened to me twice. I eventually found that I had to replace the starter relay which is not too expensive and then i had to service the starter motor. This was due to me not waterproofing m...

I bought a BGS 2464 18mm socket and worked out ok. Bought them off ebay

PLUG SPANNER 1

PLUG SPANNER 2

I was sort of in the same situation as you. I would clean the carbs first before attempting to balance and make sure that the manifold rubbers are in good condition. Otherwise you could be wasting time and money The spark plugs are pretty easy to access. Once you take the air box off just need to re...
