Start the bike and let it warm to 3 bars. |
Remove passenger seat. |

|
Remove pilot seat. |
|
Remove two allen screws at top of tank, near steering head. |
|
Remove two plastic pop rivets through grey plastic facia at rear of tank. (Blue arrows below) |
Remove king pin at rear of tank. (Yellow arrows below) |
|
|
Gently lift tank and slide rearward about two inches. |
Obtain a wooden prop about 12 inches long. (I used a length of hockey stick) |
Prop the front of the tank and place the prop between the frame and the front of the tank. |
|
Remove the three bolts retaining the T-Bar (yellow arrows). |
|
Remove the T-Bar. |
Disconnect the white and green connectors for the gas tank electronics.(See below) |

|
Reattach the white and green connectors for the gas tank electronics |
Remove the 4 rubber nipples over the throttle body breathers. (Yellow arrows show #3 and #4. Blue arrow shows pop rivet location) |
|
Attach throttle body gauge. I use the Motion Pro Economy model (~$35). |
|
Start the bike, being careful not to give it too much throttle, causing the mercury to be sucked into the intakes. |
Turn the adjusting screws to get all four intakes to the same 250mm pressure. Take care to lightly blip the throttle a few times after each adjustment. I had to set all of mine to 240 mm, because the #1 was turned all the way in to achieve this and would not go higher. |
|
Turn off the bike and reassemble in the reverse order. Make sure to thread the two allen bolts of the tank before installing the kingping. |
