Ok, first post. Go easy on me…So, I’m aware that the general consensus is airbox is best. I have one k5 running the airbox in standard trim. However I’ve been stubbornly trying to get my k7 soon to be cafe racer to work with pods. After much road testing and tinkering I’ve got the bike running like a stabbed rat. HOWEVER anything slightly more than a gentle roll on the throttle from idle in neutral is often followed by the sound of the pods sucking in lots of air and the bike cutting out. If I roll on the throttle to get the revs up a bit I can then snap the throttle consistently with perfect results but that initial first snap ( presumably when the vacuum is low?) has a tendency to cut the engine. Anyone got any ideas how this can be tamed. I’ve gone from 40’s on the pilots to 45’s to try and get more fuel through but still the same results. Carbs have been thoroughly cleaned and synced etc. is it possible that the timing (though I know it’s very close) could be off just enough to effect this? Any input appreciated.
