FCR Tuning - Synchronizing six FCRs is the best part of tuning...

Carburetor synchronization is the best part of tuning an FCR. It's one of the things you want to learn the moment you realize you want to be able to tune. This blog post is not going to be mainly about how to synchronize a CBX1000. It's going to be a column about the importance of synchronization.

FCR Tuning - The pilot screw can be fully closed to allow idling....

Recently, I have been posting about tuning the FCR at low throttle opening. This time, it's about adjusting the pilot screw. There are many posts written about it depending on the time, place, and occasion. People say different things. The information provided also varies depending on the source, such as magazines and online articles.

FCR setting - proper air screw value...

I think the proper way to return the air screw is about 1.5 turns. When I first started playing with the CBX1000 FCR, I changed the slow jet a lot. When I didn't know how to tune it, I just changed everything I could get my hands on. Now I'm trying to avoid changing the SJ as much as possible.

The difficulty of FCR tuning changes depending on whether it is quick throttle or normal throttle....

My CBX1000 used to have a very cool BITO machined throttle. I used it for almost 20 years, but I sold it because I changed it to an active Quick throttle. One of the recent themes in tuning the FCR is the feeling of acceleration when opening the throttle suddenly.

The surprising moment when I tried tuning my own FCR - for beginners - Failures 3/3...

In the setting of the CBX1000 FCR, there is one part about what went well, but three parts about what went wrong. It is true that people often learn from their mistakes. So let's get started!

The surprising moment when I tried tuning my own FCR - for beginners - Failures 2/3...

This is the middle part. This blog post is more about setting up the FCR of the CBX1000 than about setting up the FCR. Of course, there may be some parts that are useful for those who are setting up the FCR of the SR.

The surprising moment when I tried tuning my own FCR - for beginners - Failures 1/3...

The other day, I posted about the good things about setting up the FCR of my CBX1000 by myself, but this time I'm writing about the things I failed to do. I was particularly surprised by the things I wouldn't have failed to do if I had asked someone for advice instead of setting up the FCR by myself, and I'll write about the things I failed to do because I didn't know the information beforehand.

The surprising moment when I tuned my FCR by myself - for beginners - Good things...

It's been about two years since I started tuning the CBX1000 FCR in earnest. I'll write about the things that moved me and surprised me while tuning the FCR. I'll write about the good things.

FCR Tuning - Full throttle! Check the main jet for each gear...

This is my method for tuning the main jet of the CBX1000 FCR. Use a chassis dynamometer. This is written in a slightly abstract way, not in a precise way.

FCR setting - Installing an air-fuel ratio meter makes setting easier....

I have a PLX-DM-6 on my CBX1000. I see a lot of different expressions on the internet for carburetor settings, such as rich, lean, bumpy, and overhanging, rather than FCR settings. These are just the expressions used by the writers, so I'm not sure if they apply to the settings of my motorcycle.
