How do you know which carb to adjust (right/left)? Heard its good to hold at 200rev not tune to idle. Where did you get the ball bearing? Also what size piping is that, and where did uou get it? I wanna synch my 1997 gpz500 carbs this week as its running really lean. Really curious how to decide which carb to tune though (right or left)
hello dear Master, i washed my kle500 with jet and then my bike's engine doest'n work. i think water went to somewhere. if i pushed the bike from top of the road, bike works very hard. where should i check? handstarter is working but engine doesn't runing. if the engine run somehow does not stop. what can ı do?
Builded this set up yesterday, immediatly drowned my carbs because of the constant fuel feed. Needed to use my tank nd fuel tap en fit in a T peace to tap of vaccuum for the bearing measurement... mines a 91'. Whats different between ur carbs nd mine?
+gtrquinny Other than a full stainless exhaust because the original one rusted out, all the mods have been to improve the off road capabilities. ie raised suspension ( front + rear ), knobblies, raised front mudguard. I also put shrink tubing over all the electrical connections to help waterproof them. Oh, and heated grips because i'm a wimp!
so the kle is quite reliable. :) What i know, the first models needed a lot of petrol. how about the newer ones? oh and thx agaain for all your information and nice videos.
Never seen this done with ball bearing before. That’s pretty neat!!!
Great guide 👍 I'm trying to diagnose a flatspot/fluffy throttle between 3-6k RPM. Could carb imbalance be the issue? Thanks

Cool, i will have a try using your set up. What tuning/up grades have you done to your kle?

what brand of stainless exhaust did you buy? or was it custom made?
It is a Scorpion full stainless system with the baffles removed, that i bought on Ebay for about £300
May i ask a question? How often does it happen, that the carburetors are getting off balance? ? Greetings!
mine get out of balance about twice a year but i do mostly bumpy off road
thx a lot for the fast answer. thinking to get a kle for a real long trip.
they are good for long trips, i took it to Spain and did 1800 miles 2 years ago and it was great

it only has a 15 liter tank but i still managed 150 miles between fill ups
