necessary to either replace the throttle with a high throttle sold separately or process the throttle pipe. (Refer to a fig. on Page 3.)
○ When a stock throttle housing is used, change from the throttle to the supplied high throttle cables.
○ In order to install a high-throttle, you need to remove the stock throttle housing. Therefore, you cannot use the front brake lever, turn signals, or a horn
switch installed in the motorcycles with a frame No. from Z50J-1300017 to 1510400.
○On those vehicles with frame Nos Z50J-1600008 or beyond, you can not use the front brake lever. So you need to prepare a front brake lever and its holder.
(A power lever of 06-08-300 is installable).
○ Please take note that you cannot run your motorcycle in the rain.

◇ Features ◇
We have designed an easy-to-install carburetor for Monkey and Gorilla for street use, coming with a high throttle cable so a stock throttle housing can be used.
You can easily install this Kit bolt on onto motorcycles but excluding some models, and use a separately-sold machined funnel, a curling funnel, and an air filter.
CAUTION
The following show the envisioned possibility of injuries to human bodies and property damage as a result of disregarding the following cautions.
・Work only when the engine and muffler are cool at below 35 degrees Celsius. Otherwise, you will get burned.
・Always use a torque wrench to screw bolts and nuts tight and securely to the specified torque.
・As gasoline is highly flammable, never place it close to fire. Make sure that nothing flammable is near the gasoline. Since vaporized accumulation of
gasoline is at the high risk of explosion, work in a well-ventilated place.
・Always use a hose clip and connect the hose firmly to the carburetor.
・Never look into the carburetor’s intake pipe carelessly while the engine is running. Flames could spurt by the spitting-back of gasoline or backfire.
・The carburetors are shipped out in a factory preset mode. However, depending on the natural phenomena like the weather, temperatures and
barometric pressure, and combination of parts used, the carburetors need re-setting. Rearrange the setting to match each engine.
・Before driving, always check parts for slack and gasoline leakage. And when something unusual happens to your motorcycle while riding,
immediately stop riding and park it in a safe place to check what has gone wrong with it.

How to Set the Carburetor
・When the carburetor does not match the engine and the engine fails, the engine failures are caused by either too dense or too lean air-fuel mixture.
・The engine failure symptoms for the engine are as follows:
When the air-fuel mixture is too dense:
・The explosion sound with a dull thud continues intermittently.
・The engine malfunctions further if you use the choke.
・The engine malfunctions when you warm it up.
・The engine works well if the cleaner is detached.
・The motorcycle belches dense (or, black) exhaust gas.
・The plug smolders, getting blackened.
When the air-fuel mixture is too lean:
・The engine overheats somewhat.
・The engine starts working well If you use the choke,.
・The engine does not accelerate well. (No smooth acceleration)
・Revolutions change, generating weak power.
・The plug burns white.
Whether or not the engine revolution is in proportion to the throttle operation
・When the acceleration is not smooth or even, make the air-fuel mixture dense.
・Make the air-fuel mixture lean when the engine revolution goes up heavily and belches black gas.
The mixture ratio at this throttle position can be adjusted by the location of E-ring in the grooves. The air-fuel mixture becomes dense as the
location of the E-ring moves down from the 1st to the 5th groove.
○Main jet (The throttle position at 3/4 - 4/4)
The air-fuel mixture ratio at this throttle position can be adjusted by changing the number of the main jet. The larger the main jet numbers, the
denser the mixture ratio becomes.
In view of the engine and muffler specifications, select the most appropriate main jet to get the highest revolutions.
○Pilot jet (First of all, please adjust the air screw.)
・In case you have given more than three turns to the air screw to tighten it, use a pilot jet with a small number.
・ If you have tighten the air screw (clockwise) to the full, use a pilot jet with a larger number.
Check whether you have made a right choice of the pilot jet by seeing if the engine starts up revolving smoothly from the idling to running
at slow speed.
・When the engine revolves up unevenly, the pilot jet number is too small. (At idle)
・ When the motorcycle belches black exhaust gas and produces heavy exhaust sound, the pilot jet number is too big. (At idle)
・After replacing the pilot jet, you need to readjust the airscrew.
○ Air screw
The air screw adjusts the air mass flow at the time of engine’s revolving at slow speed. (At idling)
・Give the air screw a right turn → The air-fuel mixture gets dense.
・Give the air screw a left turn → The air-fuel mixture gets lean.
Loosen the tightened air screw back to the 1.5-turn position. And then from this position, give to the airscrew a right or left turn of 1/4 to 1/2
till the engine revolves at the highest speed.
Loosen the idle stop screw till you get the steady idling revolutions. And once again adjust the position of the airscrew to get the highest
revolutions.
●On how the barometric pressure, temperatures and humidity affect the setting:
・At highlands or at high altitudes, the barometric pressure and air density go down and the air gets into the carburetor in less amounts.
This makes the air-fuel mixture dense which was adjusted at low altitudes.
・Under the weather conditions with very low temperatures, the air density increases, which makes the air-fuel mixture lean.
・Under the rainy and humid weather conditions, the air density decreases, which makes the air-fuel mixture dense.
