TBR7 carb tuning?

Skateforlife6 · 05-01-2021, 01:47 AM

So I'm confused as to exactly what parts I need to buy. I just want to tune the stock carb when I get my bike. The only other mod I'll do is the airbox mod. So what will I need to do to the stock carb and where can I find the parts needed? Please try to be specific, I'm already confused. Thanks everyone.

You'll need a dremel with cutoff wheel, or a small hacksaw, a flathead screwdriver, a pilot jet, and a main jet. Jet kits can be found on Amazon. You'll also need one or two tiny brass washers from the hardware store to fit the needle. That should cover it.

What airbox mod are you doing on your TBR7? If it's the one that some do on the hawks, you'll find the tbr7 has a different snorkel thats larger than the hawks and made from rubber.

yup, TBR7 doesn't need the airbox mod

you may need to shim the needle as well, but a small washer will do the trick
