I have a z1b,1045 wiseco pistons,ported head,dyna s coils and ignition,four in one headers with titanium yoshi can.
I am currently running 33mm keihen crs carbs with foam uni filter type air cleaners. I have re jetted a few times and dropped the needles to where i feel its running fairly well.
Do you think 33mm bore is too big ,would i be better off with say 29 or something as i have a set of 76 z1000 carbs at home,just curious on other opinions as most guys around here are running big flatslides(36-38), i think this is overkill myself on smallbore bikes(900).
Thanks Jason.

No mention of performance camshafts so assuming OEM...
Bike running sweet, seems so...
No fouling plugs, accelaration/decelaration issues when twisting or releasing the throttle, no carb or exhaust backfires, mpg/kpg reasonable ~ 30 etc...
Then leave her alone for you will feel a difference in the Keihin CR specials to those 30 year old carbs... Speaking of technology not size... Also, your head was most likely ported for those carb intakes so with that lone, leave her alone for optimium air flows into the head.
I have a 1015 cc kit with .365 mild performance cams and the 29mm CRS... When resarching my carbs, the recomendations where to stick with 29-31mm... At 33mm, and considering the work that was accomplished in your motor don't screw with it, leave her alone...
Now, picture of that exhaust pipe? :woohoo: :laugh:
