Jetting bike carbs, access to jets?
I have keihin zzr1200 carbs which I'm building an airbox for and just need to ensure that its location will not prevent jets from being changed
easily at a rolling road session.
I'm hoping access is gained by removal of the fuel bowls as I can still get to these with the box in place, currently I have to remove a wheel
and the manifold to get the carbs to an angle to remove the airbox!
any knowledge appreciated.

If they are the same as the Keihins fitted to the Honda blackbird then yes, all (well both - idle and main) the jets can be easily changed if you can
get the float bowl off easily.
hope this helps

I must confess, i find it a damn site quicker to pop the whole lot off, just use a smidge of silicone grease to make the carb fitting easier.

Same here but it doesn't sound like se7ensport has that option.

I wish I had that option, its a pig of a job getting it on and off- this picture probably gives an idea of how tight it all is.

Ps airbox bolts on!
