Do you mean push down from inside where the slide goes in? Unfortunately the system will not allow me to post any pictures at the minute.

Thanks

Hmm...keen to see if this works out, as I got a slightly manky set of F2 carbs I am getting ready to overhaul.

For those who never work on them (and from what I have read, I can totally get this) is there an alternative? One that doesn't involve a second mortgage anyway and one that can retain the airbox.

yes got everything sorted, it was expensive getting all the parts ( mostly from https://www.cmsnl.com) however took my time and got it sorted. I used air filter form the 500 series and altered airbox very slightly .

whoops another problem.

I replaced carb needle and needle guide . All went well until I noticed when opening and closing the throttles the slides or needles seem to be sticking in one carb in particular ( carb 3). When I remove the screws for throttle arm, the slides move freely.
I also noticed that needles are tight when passing through needle guide and needle will not fully go through guide , whereas they will on the old guides.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance.

Did you fit genuine Honda or aftermarket needle jets kits?
