Lightweight FCR springs

Post by dandywarhol » Fri Dec 13, 2019 6:03 pm

A friend of mine posted this recently on Faceache. His team ACR Racing won the Classic TT Superbike race with aussie Davo Johnson on board. Dave's only problem was the heavy throttle gave his serious wrist problems - and he's a fit guy!

"I have had a batch of -40% throttle return springs made for the Keihin FCR carbs fitted to ZXRs and ZX7RR. Gets rid of the heavy throttle as takes a good bit less effort to keep it open. Same as the no longer available Kawasaki race kit part 92144-1734. Can be used in any FCR carb as well. £20 posted in the UK."

If you're interested, drop me a PM and I'll pass it onto Alasdair. Cheers
