Mechanic to adjust carbs for pods needed

**glukasil** · 2nd August 2014, 09:12

Hi guys. I have fj1200 with mesh pod filters. Can you recommend a mechanic to adjust the carbs to suit the pods?
Needs to be not too busy and expensive. Thanks a lot

I need a reasonable priced mechanic who is not busy at the moment.
I know it sounds like dry water

If they are any good, chances are they will be busy AND know what their time and skills are worth.

FJ1200 has CV carbs. The airbox is an integral part of them working properly. The springs on top of the slides often needs to be replaced if you put pods on.

dynojet usually make kits for branded pod filters, springs as drewpy mentioned and correct size drill bits for the areas that need a bit of mods

I was surprised that the dynojet kit for my gixxer didn't come with slide springs. But I'll chuck it in and see what happens.

Buy the kit.

Given you're tweaking your intake system I'd be more interested in a mechanic who knows his/her stuff rather than what they will charge. I presume you've played with the exhaust too.
