CB 550 K3 carbs

<< < (2/2)

I have worked on a K3 where a true 1000 RPM  was shown as 1400 RPM on the onboard ND tacho... So be careful if you 're trying to arrive at an '1000 RPM' idle.

Piki:
Best option is fit a 550 F carbs on your 550 K3, PD carbas are a nightmare.

Yes, but is mainly due to changed fuel properties. Either ride regularly or add some (= socalled maintenance dose) fuel system cleaner like Redex or a similar product.
