Thanks pdxjim.
Great timing with this article. I am currently at the point of installing new carbs on my RZ. I will definitely be reading this more then once. Extremely informative (at least for me).
Thanks again
thats a good through explanation.
:patriot:
note the part in the middle of the article explaining needle position and the 'non magical' middle position. :toot:
I love Kevin Cameron's ability to translate complex science into terms that a halfwit (me) can grasp. Has he written or compiled a book yet?
Thanks Jim!
Oh, yes! Several: Top Dead Center, Top Dead Center II, Sportbike Performance Handbook, etc. Check Amazon, Barnes & Noble or any bookseller for his titles. He's a favorite of mine as well.
Thanks for posting, great article!
Here is the Mikuni VM tuning guide.....It pairs nicely with that Cameron article.

Thanks for the info. I just ordered TDC from Amazon! Remember when Amazon only sold books?
