KiwiBob Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 (edited) Wouldn't it have been a little more polite to introduce yourself to the rest of the forum first rather than dive in and ask the same question 3 times?

smallfrowne Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 I dunno. I like the username. If you're having carb issues you probably want the stock airbox and filter on. Or just mess about with jets and mix screws until it gets better. And needle clip height. Other than that my preference is for these hepaflows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smallfrowne Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 But really, if you have a non standard air filter you will need to fanny about with the jetting. Not impossible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have had loads. If you were wanting to make friends you might start with something like: hi I am Jeremy, came here because I am having a difficulty and hoping you can help. some here will mind some won’t. You have a better chance of getting what you want with nice words Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smallfrowne Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 If you've got a pod filter on already, leave it and play about with the carb. Pretty much any filter you'd replace it with is going to give similar issues because it's no longer got the restriction of the stock air box, which the carb is setup for. Have a look at this guide, see if it helps. https://www.caferacerwebshop.com/en/blogs/blog/how-to-rejet-your-cafe-racer-carburetor/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
