1967 CB450K0 Black Bomber Rebuild - By Royhall

AshimotoK0:
Still need to look Roy.

I would be inclined to fit the genuine Keihin brass-ware I sold you. Lot of bad reports about pattern parts , particularly needles.

royhall:
Weren't those needles specific for the K0 carbs Ash. The K0 carbs are very different to the K1 to K4 carbs. The 4into1 kits appear to have good reviews that's why I chose them over the DSS kits.

Possibly .. theory was if people use those brass parts on 500T  carbs on Bomber K0s then the same for K1 carbs. What's wrong with the parts in the K1 carbs then?

royhall:
To be honest these carbs are so easy to get on and off I think I will give the kits a chance first. I can always use the other parts if things don't go so well. I will be fitting the springs on the pistons though.

Ash, don't know if it matters but those service parts are for 14C carbs. I am assuming the later carbs already came with the modified parts but I have no way of checking that. I have options here, I will try the kits first and if that's problematic I will fit the genuine bits, then I could clean and try the bits that are in the carbs now. The last option is not a good one as I have no idea if they have been messed with in the past.
I still haven't read anywhere about the vacuum springs, looks like a mod that not many do.

Hi Roy and Ashley

got all my cases back and now on looks great.... just got her up and running but Not to well, both carbs set up of the bike and then put on and set mix screws 1 1/2 out runs but when you rev it up and revs come down it hangs around the 2.000 mark then come down to settle around the 1,000 to 1,200 mark............. have you got any Ideas what it might be..... oh I have set it up with a colortune and got it a lovely blue with the mix screws both out around the 1 turn out mark Now.

also Not sure if its charging changing the subject as battery go`s flat after a few go`s on the starter Button..... I Know its Not the battery as that has been checked out ............. so Not sure about any probs with the Rectifier or maybe the stator .... don't Know how to check them out Not up on electrics to be Honest  :'(

Cheers
