Leon: I´ll save the full profile pics until I´m completely done

Kaw: Thanx for the heads up. Self etching primer is a check.
But I´m going for a normal 2 component black paint...you really think they get so hot ?

Hey guys,

Could you please help me out with some jetting advice.

I doing up my carbs for my KZ1100 Retro Fighter project with below set up:

* Velocity stacks
* Bored to 1200 cc
* Close to stock exhaust
* Dyna S ignition
* Main jet is now 120
* Pilot jet is now 37,5

The carb kit below contained standard jets but also a 125 main jet and 40 pilot jet.



So...any advice how to set it up ?

...anyway, took a look at Dynojet kits and they have the 160 jets in their kit, so thats what I went for.

After assembling 236 parts the carbs are back together again

Hey guys !

Yepp...it´s alive !




I did a but ugly job hooking the coils and battery up. Filled up with some petrol and up she started.
I also repainted the carbs in satin black cus they looked a bit strange in gloss.

Only troble is that she´s running on 3 cylinders. Saw that the valve clerance for first cylinder is way off :whistle:

Looking good Arnold.Congrats.

:ohmy: woo hoo :woohoo: !!!!!!!!!!

congrats sir :evil: !

make sure those plug wires for the outter cylinders aren't getting pinched by the tank :whistle:...

Those carbs turned out great. Looks like you soda blasted, what did you use after that? Any primer and what kind of paint?

Great job man....Congrats on ur finish bike.
Video clip with it running would be the icing on the cake... Would like to hear that exhaust note.

Wow!! what a fantastic build. That is a super sweet looking bike. Great work and congrats on almost being done..
