Help.
Have fitted new air filters on my KZ750E1 and starts fine. Within 5 minutes of running from cold the block is really hot and much hotter than prior to changing over the filters.
With the new intake is the engine running too lean and do I need to adjust and sync the carbs?
Hope someone can help.
Thanks and regards

If you put hi flow filters on then you will most likely have to re-jet for proper mixture.

You have to rejet. A good baseline I think is up two sizes for each mod.
