What year of bike do you have?
It appears those are the vacuum ports for synchronizing your carbs. |
Ah ok, thanks. There are 2 aluminium tubes and I wasn’t sure what they were for so I blocked them off. I was having issues with hesitation at 5k rpm under load but today I diagnosed the problem to be the engine running lean due to a high flow air filter I was using, I put the stock filter and air box on and problem solved. I thought maybe those tubes were vacuum hoses that needed to be connected to something and they were the reason for the hesitation. I believe the engine is a 98-99 F3 engine based on pictures. The engine was given to me but I don’t have any information on it. I am actually using it in a Fiat 126 race car. I have only just got the engine running and my first race coming up so really needed to get the hesitation fixed ASAP I couldn’t find any info on those tubes in manuals etc. Here is a picture of the car it weighs around 500kg, it’s a flying machine now. From what I have read on the forum I gather I would need to Increase the main jet size in order to use a high flow air filter, is that right? Thanks again for the help https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/cbrforu...6fd118af3.jpeg |
I think those went to the pair valve that someone probably removed Nothing to worry about as long as they're sealed.
The ports for carb sync are underneath the carbs. |

I love the CBR sticker on her. It looks like a lot of fun, good luck. |

Yes, I'd go with 145 mains and 42 pilots with 2 shims under each needle. Also turn the air fuel mixture screws out 2 1/2 turns.

As i said i was given the engine so i don't know how the hoses were routed originally. I guess ideally i need to do some kind of catch tank arrangement, but i'm unsure which ones are inlets or outlets. |
