bike carbs

Post by Kirky76 »

I am collecting parts to swop out my 1.8 injection engine and fit a kr 16v engine, I have a set of cbr900 bike carbs, manifold, engine, gearbox and wiring loom, but I have a question about changing to a carb system, the injection system works on high pressure but the carbs require high flow and low pressure, looking at a few threads most people change the fuel pump and fit a regulator, but I have seen a regulator on ebay that keeps the injection fuel pump its a Malpassi Regulator (injection to Carb Conversion) FPR014 has anyone used one of these.
Any advice welcome cheers

There are a number of regulators available for the job which allow the use of the K-Jet pump and will reduce the pressure
an example ,the one you have seen- http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/141801344990? ... EBIDX%3AIT

They also have fuel return so keeps life really simple.
For ignition are you using a bodged KR ICU or going after market (Nodiz or Megasquirt or similar)?


Apparently the dreadful paint on my Rocco is PATINA....
