I have stripped them ready for cleaning and was feeling quite pleased with myself when I saw a small spring that I hadn’t accounted for, it’s not from the internals for sure, I’m confident it is from the hardware on the outside somewhere and I’m sure I can figure that out.
What really stumped me was the diaphragms that I ordered from NRP, I realise that I have no idea how to change them, can they be done without cutting the plastic holding rings, I’m sure they aren’t called plastic holding rings but hopefully you know what I mean!!
Not sure if you have discussed this yet? when re-installing the slides and diaphragms into the carbs the slides need to be put in the correct orientation with the 2 holes in the bottom toward the rear of the bike. I found out the hard way! if not correct the slide will "hammer" and after less then 25 miles it was all buggered and locked up and leaned one side out. Pipe immediately turned blue.
It would have been nice if Honda put a pin and a slot like almost all the other models.
