:thumbup: I like other owners have had a myriad of problems in trying to get the paso 750 perform and tickover with the standard weber carb. Completed wiring change by Jon Slocum which made a major difference and fitted a fuel pressure regulator at 3psi. Made a big improvement but no tickover beyond two minutes! I recently fitted a pair of mikunis with manifolds and K&N pod filters from a 750 sport. What a difference!! It realyy feels like a different bike - far more responsive with an even tickover for as long as you like. It is really a bike to appreciate now. |

Congrats on you improvements Pete :thumbup: I am determined to perservere with the Webbers, If I don't change them I don't know what I have been missin out on. (that & the financial side of this mod) 
Do you notice a great deal of difference on the open road? I find my webbers are a dog in town but ok on the good roads, what are your impressions so far? I am very interested

I don't know all of the specs on it, all I know is that it's a 38mm mikuni. I haven't gotten it yet, I'm expecting it any day now. For the set of two it was $95 on ebay. My jet kit is a K&N kit, it was around $30. I'll post some pics soon. |

I purchased mine from DOCGB classifieds. They cost me £110 which included the throttle linkage and twist grip assembly, together with a pair of K&N pod filters. The manifolds were included too. The carbs had been recently fitted with a dynojet kit and were taken from a 750 sport. The transplant was straight forward - a perfect fit with no modifications. Keep a look out in the DOCGB magazine. |

there is a clearance but only a few mm but enough to avoid contact. I adjusted the fit of the manifold to use the clearance between the engine stud and manifold holes. Fits perfectly and does not touch the frame. |

Ok I think I know what you mean, small amount of adjust ment in the diameter of the manifold holes? Do you know if the 750Sport Manifolds are shorter than 600 Monster ones? |
