hey people, need some help with my new bike
« on: May 12, 2006, 12:28:15 PM »
hey,

   Just bought a bandit 250 '93' while Im here in Japan for a while, I having problems with carbies, I cant get any info from mechanics here (due to language barriers)..

   Does any one have photos, or manual pictures, or good sites that I can visit that show the carbies and there workings.. I basically need to know which are the mixture screws..

   Any help would be fantastic...

   Cheers travellukie...

Generally, the mixture screws are usually in the same place on most carbs.

A B4 manual ought to do you OK for most things as the two engines are in the same family. The carbs on the 400 will be different and may or may not even be from the same vendor, but the principals will be the same.
