Christer, I have pressurized my carbs on my CBR600 exactly in the way you have described below. I would think that by doing this I wont have to mess with the springs in the CV slides. Is this what you found? What are you using for a fuel pressure regulator, and how many pounds over boost? I'm dynoing this Tuesday for the first time, any tips would be helpful. thanks, Dave.
