Just resurrecting this thread as I wondered if anyone ever fitted one of these with any success?
Think of how stupid the average person is, then realise that half of them are more stupid than that.

Thought I'd bump this for interest. We never stop learning, do we? :wink:

Not a power band issue but mate worked in a small dealer in 70,s fella came in & bought CB200 new .following week and every week it came back as he said it wasnt running right.road tested but all ok.eventually they fitted a pair of coloured cable straps around the carbs and told fella they had found the problem.pointed to the carbs and said the 'foofoo valves ' hadnt been fitted at pdi,he never came back.any problem we have is always the foofoo valves
