Hi guy's. I'm a newbie, just picked up a 74 z1, purchased it at sea level, I live at 6500 ft,  the runs out at 5000 rpm. I need to rejet the mains and was wondering if I can remove them on the engine or do the carbs have to be removed. The carbs are vm it's and the jets are in the bottom. Any thoughts. Thanks
Rob

The 1974 Z1 was a split year, early and late. Early carbs used float bowls with a big 17mm main jet access nut on each bowl. Later version only had a small brass drain slotted screw per bowl. Which version do you have?
