there is a article in american iron about cv carbs basicallly they are saying is to buy a sportster needle and drill out the plug and change the one jet and 1.5 turns out that is it

 

Yeah for a bone stock bike with real gas.
Everything has changed with this US mandated 10% corn gas now! If you weren't lean, you are now! At 15% our motors wouldn't even run.
That tune would make my bike fall flat and probably be so lean it would burn-up.

 

that's great info on the cv carbs. i have a 92 fxr that i was trying to decide which s&s or mikuni i was going to use. guess i'll just get my cv 40 dialed in instead. i'm amazed every time i get in the forum, lots of great information in here.

 

does anybody add a gas teatment to the gas when filiing up for the e10 or e 15 moisture problems they are creating in the tanks

 

I've been using Lucas Upper Cylinder Lubricant, the complete fuel treatment for increasing gas mileage, BAD GAS, fuel conditioner, NEUTRALIZES Poor Quality Fuel, injector cleaner, lubricates rings, more power, less cylinder wear, lubricates pumps, carburetors, complete combustion burn, fewer emissions, creates a cushion seal at valves, less valve wear, etc. I have been using it for yrs in my race cars and seems to really help. I started using it in my bike w/corn gas!

Somebody soon will have a product to help with the corn gas, imho!
Create it and make a million before they outlaw it...

 

Sorry to bring up an old post,

But I ordered the Killer MC carb from Dale and I'm itching to get it on the bike with the other improvements I've made and see what it does on a dyno.

FYI - waiting sucks....

 

His work seems superb... PLUS, he is available with a quick reply, tuning info, etc... by email IMMEDIATELY.

 

Let us know how it turns out.

 

Sta-bil has a new product out that helps the ethanol problem. we've been using and reccomending it for about six months now with good results. So if you can find it at your local parts place you should try it. Hope this helps.

 

Yep Dale does some awesome work and good to work with on the phone or email.
