- The carbs on the Honda V-4's are a bitch to get in and out.
- I have jetted a few bikes, but have never tried to jet a Honda
- V-4. The reason being that they are difficult to get in and out.
- Before you try to jet it, just try and remove the carbs and put
- them back in. If you can do it with easily, then go and jet it.
- Remember when jetting a bike, you may have to, (probably will),
- remove the carbs many times until you get the jetting right.
- You have one advantage over inline 4's that I can think of, and
- that is your air mixture adjustment is easy to get to while the
- tank is on the bike. This cuts down on tank removal to do air
- adjustments.
-
- Yes, the jetting should increase your mid-range quite a bit.
- If done correctly, you will definetely notice the difference.
- If done incorrectly you can have problems with hard starts,
- fouled plugs, stalling and bad acceleration.
-
- Good Luck
