Does anyone have base settings for them on a KZ1000? They are used so I'm not sure how they are set up right now.
They look to be pretty new - really nice shape. I bought them outside of eBay and not from a KZR member either, so I'm very relieved that they actually showed up today and that I wasn't scammed.

SUDCO sends them out way rich so....

Phoenix AZ is roughly 1400 feet elevation...
I dropped 2 sizes on the mains and slow jets.
1 size to leaner YY9 needle, clip position 3.
She prefers to idle at ~ 1100-1200rpm...
Now due to AZ heat (freaking 115*F :pinch:) and in my top end build, I prefer to be a tad richer.... Plugs are spot on regarding ground band strap, base circle light carbon and insulator a gray versus tan color....
I have no loss/bogg in low rpm, no sputters or lags, no back firing on deceleration and no need to downshift to pass...
Just roll on the throttle and she takes off like a scorned women.... :woohoo:
These carbs are extremely easy to re-jet.... If I can do it anyone can....

What size CR's are you running?
Can you also tell me if these carbs can be vacuum synchronized? There is a fitting near the choke on each carb - is that an overflow or a place to synch?
Maybe mechanical synch only? Didn't see snychronizing mentioned in any of the literature.
Thanks

Manifolds have the vacuum ports...
For sync, you adjust the throttle valves as in most carbs...
Once wamred up....
* Hook up the Morgan to all 4 manifold ports...
* Try and set idle as low as possible... Mine ~ 900-1000rpm
for the old girl gets pissy on me any lower... She prefers normal idle around 1100-1200rpm and she'll purr for me...
* Adjust throttle valves for obtaining 18-20cm on all 4 carbs +/-2cm...
* Blip the throttle and let her snap back, should rise and fall uniformly and in unison (+/-2-4cm)... Should fall to where it was adjusted to ~ 20cm...
I realize a few mntionings have been made about inusirng they are the same is the biggest point to make in carb sync but I have found insuring I ahve the optiomum vaccum (20cm) made a difference as well in performance of these CR's....
I know, I know, I'm anal that way plus I enjoy tweaking and learning... Plum and Larry always get pissed at me for I go way out of my way on research & tweaking for perfection or as close as I can get to it in my mind anywas.... :blush: Just the way my brain works I guess... :woohoo:
Side outlet is an overflow.... I leave mine open, no tube or plug/cap... No issues to date...
Seriously, once you dial these babies in, wholly smokes hang on when you twist her for you are going to notice a HUGE difference in performances.... My little 1015 pulls like a seasoned hooker.... :laugh:

how often are you actually gonna pin the throttle where youll get full affect of a set of 34s versus the smaller carbs?
At LEAST once a day weather i need to or not .:woohoo:

heres dale walkers old 750/1170 running 9.39 142mph little a little old set of 29s back in the day,i dont know about you but hes a better rider than me! :laugh:
Like to know the compression and the cam timing on this motor and what he did to the
HEAD! that's fast and I want to know HOW he did it.
But I'll never know .... wait I'll move out into the country and run an
1170 down the road all day making changes to the timing,
and see just where he found that power and speed.
Can tell by the pic this isn't a perfect world,
He couldn't seem to adjust the headlamp, now go figure.
