If suffer a knock on the bike, will the carb tuning changes ?

[Aalex82]

u remind mi of someone..

everyone call him et..

wat kind of knock u mean?

imagine u screw in a bolt halfway.. then u give the bolt a knock, will the screw go in further or loosen out..

the float can be out of place due to the pin 'moving'.

that can have effect on the 'carburetion'.

u noe wat i mean

The float pin setting will not change when a crash happens. Remember the float pin has to go through all the bumps bashed etc on the road, a crash will not upset the float settings.

bumps bahsed on the road is the bike vertical,

when fall is bike horizontal.

i not pro on this, but i'm sure it can effect carb somehow.

ok maybe only when the float pin is "worn off"?

cause my mito last time float pin go out of place make fuel leaking from the bowl.

 

sorry i dun care to type proper english.. i not form england mah.

The float pin will have no sideways clearance when its in place, so even a horizontal fall will not affect carb settings.

 

When a float pin wears out, only the upper tip gets worn. Since the tip is small, it will let in more petrol hence the problem.

Neither am I

ok thanx for the info.

 

what about the float itself?

can it manage to unsettle itself due to bike drop?

[Nescafe]

So will it affect the settings ? I feel strange when riding. Is it because of the setting ?

[h4hahak1m]

It's just better to get it checked. A soft fall won't affect anything but a really bad one might just do something, not just to the carbs but to the other internals

No such thing as when you drop the bike,the carb tuning setting runs..A drop will not change your mainjet size,needle taper,float height or fuel mixture screw adjustment.

 

If it really happens,then those mx guys must have a very2 hardlife. Just that maybe your handlebar is abit off center.
