In today's video, we will see how to adjust the carburation of a motorcycle. There are two main methods of action: - you can turn the screw on the side that regulates the intake of air and fuel; - unscrew the duct and adjust the height of the washer. In the second case, extract the metal needle. Then move the washer according to your needs; if low, the carburation will be richer, if high, it will be leaner. Once everything is reinserted, adjust the screw. Turning it to the right will make the carburation leaner, while turning it to the left will make it richer. Adjust according to your requirements.
