What I've come across as far in obtaining the best results are as follows....

NOTE: This is for my Keihin CR specials, will be slightly different for your carbs.

Step 1:
Start with 1 turn out on your pilots, idle @ 1000rpm.
CCW pilot out (Leaner) till turns bunson blue. Note the the number of turns where you'll hear an increase of rpm...

NOTE: Now I have a better understanding when guys say they tune by ear... With this tool, you get to see the change and hear it as well ;)


At which point, turn back where it runs predominantly yellow then add the halfway point between the two settings.

Pre 1985 setups, you want just slightly rich over lean setups.

Step 2:
Not a rapid twist of the throttle but slow twist where it should stay light blue throughout the 1000-3000rpm range.

Adjust pilots accordingly....

NOTE: As mentioned, I had the other two steps set accordingly but hadn't known of this step. In discussions with Larry C and Plummen, I informed of this new found find & what a difference it made in throttle response on the road..... they both replied,

"Well ya, DUH"..... :laugh:

Step 3:
With a good twist of the throttle, she should go from blue to yellow then back to blue....

Can't get more easier than that guys.... ;)
