Nice work Steve....that's framed poster material. 👍🏻

The TMR series Mikuni's have rollers on those flat slides....(but twice the $$$)

Still, for street use, the oem FJ's Constant Velocity carbs are pretty darn versatile.
Something to be said about a carb design that can take your FJ from sea level to 14k feet (Pikes Peak) Without a hiccup or fouled plugs. 

Even still, I do want to try some 38mm or 40mm TMR's on my 1380cc FJ.
I've been told that would be like finding religion.
Besides....What could possibly go wrong?
1) Free Owners Manual download: https://tinyurl.com/fmsz7hk9
2) Don't store your FJ with E10 fuel https://tinyurl.com/3cjrfct5
3) Replace your old stock rubber brake lines.
4) Important items for the '84-87 FJ's:

I've got a set of 36 TMR's for my CB750 Pat. They are for my last engine build for that bike. 6mm stroker crank and 72mm bore (stock is 61mm).....1123cc's.
 I like the TMR roller design better than the FCR's...less complicated, The accelerator pump is more adjustable as well.
 Found this but no delivery information. https://www.webike.ph/products/20021388.html?ref=hd_sgg

I won't tell you what the set of Bito RD FCR's for my CBX build cost. :lol: Luckily I had a ton of "priceless" CB750 parts that I unloaded.

Time to sell 3 FJ's to be able to buy one set of carbs, LOL
It does not matter how slowly I go as long as I do not stop.
