There is no oring around and no oring inside the seat. Well, the jet is available, part #26 so it / they are replaceable, although stupidly expensive! Never known a new jet not to seal - the seats must be absolutely fubar'd! As said above, even contemplating using RS / FCR's is waaaay beyond sensible for this application, especially just to solve leaky needles! Quote

Has nothing to my case of the fuel leak Quote

Oh no. The seat is in the place where tip of #22 sits. You can't see this in the picture. Quote
TonyGee Posted June 19, 2022 Posted June 19, 2022 the seat isn't shown in the pic but it is in the list below, I didn't know they where available from suzuki as they are pressed in !!!!! the bandit 1200's seat is held in with a small plate and screw.

wraith Posted June 19, 2022 Posted June 19, 2022 If it was me in your shoes, I'd ever put the gsx750f carbs and inlet rubbers back on and get some Dyno time or do the same with b6 carbs. Did you use the 750f inlet rubbers? Was it flat sporting from the start of the revs or higher up? May just need bigger main jets. As the gsx750f engine will be pretty much the same engine you have.

I installed the carbs with K&N filters instead of the airbox. Maybe it was a reason that tuning was so difficult. Rubbers between the head and carbs were from 750 inazuma. Experimented with jets, but couldn't achieve success. Flat spot appeared on mid and higher revs (like main jet and needle) Quote
wraith Posted June 19, 2022 Posted June 19, 2022 Yes, with the k&n filters you'd need to go upto around 140 main and start with the needles in the center groove. Using the standard Inazuma intake rubbers (rubbers between head and carbs) will be way to small for the gsx750f 36mm carbs and you'd be getting air leaking all over the place. So you need to get the rubber inlets as well and put new o'rings no the rubbers when you come to fit them. Quote

TonyGee Posted June 19, 2022 Posted June 19, 2022 when i built my Katzuma i put the engine in the frame, then i found a standard airbox, but when i come to fit it, their was no way it was going on !!!!!! luckily i only had the engine in the frame at the time 1 Quote
terecha Posted June 27, 2022 Author Posted June 27, 2022 I checked that the bandit 600 carbs can fit inazuma, however there are no such carbs in the good condition in the market. I could buy a crap for 150 euro here The problem in my case is worn needle valve seat. While it is not replaceable, I don't know how to fix it Quote

Changed the the float valves twice. Genuine kit and tourmax kit, in both cases still leakage is present. Float is at the good level. So only the seats can be worn.

Why not, but maybe better to use CNC mill with precision tip? Quote
Dezza Posted June 27, 2022 Posted June 27, 2022 If you set the carbs up on a bench on a secure stand, a retort stand is ideal, and the complete apparatus is set in a large tray such as a cat litter tray, by connecting a small auxillary fuel supply, you will be able to identify exactly where your problem lies. This can be achieved by removing the float bowls each in turn and manually closing the valve by moving the float gently upwards. If it doesn't leak then try the next carb and so on. 2 Quote
