    Carb Float Height Thread

    Does anyone know if in this thread ... is the fuel level shown in the pic the correct fuel level when floats are set to factory settings?

    I think I will use this method before I put my carbs back on the bike.

    Rob,

    The height is supposed to be 3mm +1mm below the top edge of the float bowl, which corresponds with the first shoulder curve.
