Part of the problem is, like ALL of the 93-95ish watercooled Suzuki's, that it's got a very low temperature coolant thermostat ~170f, or so. Makes them seem to run lean and not idle well when the fuel screws are set for best idle after a good ride. Install a higher temp thermostat from, perhaps a cbr600f3. We use ~190f thermostat, which is a bit higher than the f3, but 190f is where the engine runs the best and makes the best power. Either way, changing the thermostat is mandatory (trust me!). Then you can tune the carbs for best throttle response with the kit. It won't make the bike run too hot, it will just keep it from running too cool when just cruising around - like summer in foggy San Francisco - that is, south of the Golden Gate Bridge cause it's warmer to the north. The CRB-S41-1.0 Carb Recal Kit will work much better - cleaner and more responsive everywhere. There is no ignition advance available. If you were close to us, I would like to do a 1.7 style kit on the
400. |

The extension of the laboratory for engines of the
Swiss Federal Institute of Technology was completed in about 1935.
Its architect was Rudolf Otto Salvisberg (1882-1940). He had a
successful career in Berlin but returned to Switzerland after the
advent of the Nazis. His architectural style was somewhat similar to
that of Erich Mendelsohn. The staircase of the laboratory is in
normal use but well preserved. Edited to the tunes of Chemical Residue by Herbie Hancock. |

Maybe in next rewrite, he'll fix the ignition timing and dyno chapters... Otherwise great book with great starting ideas. |
