    I had one on the rear that went egg shaped after 400km and I thought I had a buckled wheel so I dont rate them. :dry:

    There is a flange on one end of the pin that you could most likely grab with a good pair of pliers and just wiggle the pin while pulling on it and I reckon it should come straight out.

    Something else that sticks in my mind re the Mikuni is when I was endevouring to tune mine, I got Geoff Ballard on the phone and he basically said that the Mikuni is a race carby and you cant really have the best of both worlds,in order to have it running at its optimum at WOT the chances are you will have idle and low RPM issues.Whether that is 100% true is open for debate.

    The one that the floats pivot off ;)

    OK,by the looks of things it isn’t tapered and should just slide out unless there is a bit of electolosis built up around it.I will have another look at the carby this arvo as it is still on my bench.

    What and you dont have a spare set of XR 600 wheels in your shed? What are you going to use as far as wheels go and for fuel range as well?

    TB

    Yeah there is a set there for Trippers other bike but that doesn’t help Moose. As far as wheels go for my fiddy,I have my eyes on a set of Yokos (black ones with a red stripe. ;) )
    I will have to use Moose as a mother ship and get fuel from him if I run out. With 15/41 gearing I can get 140kms anyhow.

    Yeah for road work,we are planning to do some plotting for the Sydney-Brisbane trip over summer. A spare set of wheels with road/trail tyres would be handy. We are gunna flog Trippers Pasha bulka tank and head off into the hills.

    I just remembered I was gunna have a look at the Mikuni I have here in the shed. I went down to the shed and pulled the bowl off and had a look.
    The main is 195 and the pilot is 12.5.It came off a bike that was a 630 with a full staintune system.

    What pin are you trying to get out?
