Saturno carburator settings for open exhaust?

Post by jyric » Wed Apr 02, 2008 8:12 am

Hi!

Does anyone know what should be the size of original jetting on Saturno?
Main jet, needle position, etc?

Also if someone has adjusted original Dellorto carburator it would be helpful to know what kind of jetting has been used.

I have original airbox with K&N MG-0001 filter, Original exhaust tubes and open slip-on silencer (Leovince Pro-S). Soon it is time to adjust carburator.

:D

The settings for the original, italian version of the Saturno (german versions are different)...

carb PHM 40 VS
main jet #138
idle jet #53
starter jet #40
needle K2 second notch (if I remeber right that's the middle)
vaporiser AB265
air screw 1,5 turns open

ciao Joachim
