Note to myself



Note to myself: 

When instaling a Keihin CR 31 Special Racing Carburetor into your CB750, take it easy...


...the dry black sooty deposits on your spark plugs, are a warning that you are running an over-rich fuel/air mixture.


Conclusion:

Don't f*ck up your engine! If you don't know how to tune it, get the thing on a dyno, and get it tuned by a professional on the 21st May.

  1. Well at least being a tad rich is better than being overly lean.

    You don't need a dyno tune, just do a plug chop.
    You already know it's rich so get some new plugs and drop a jet size in the mains. Then do your plug chopping.
