Hello guys, I just went to service my carb. Change the fuel needle and wash carb. Was told that the seating (or rather this mechanism that moves up and down) in my carb is loose, causing my needle to wear out faster. Don't really get what the mechanic mean, anybody can enlighten me?

Now I'm driving CB400 V-tech 2 for more than 5 years & just happen that my handle started to vibrates when i using the front brake to braked....have it happen to any Supper4 rider before & how u solve this problem ???

[azizhussain]

Many factors. 1st,check ur pads and disc. see if pads are worn out or disc is bent. u need someone to help lift up the bike and then spin the wheel to see if the disc is bent or not. if not, then check ur specs and fork

i belive your fork is causing this....spring failure /botomimg out just simply insuffient oil in the forks..
