Default Got some work done.

Well im kinda new to the bike thing and I just got my 93 CBR F2 about 4 months ago (only about a month of riding time). I had a buddy of mine ride it thats been riding for almost 2 years. He said it was running really rough. So I dropped it off at the bike shop 2 weeks ago. All but one of my pilot jets were clogged, the air filter was trashed, the back of the rear arm thing was broken off, and my plugs were bad. Now I thought the thing was pretty quick before. Well I know my bike guy pretty good and he was telling me that at idle it was only running on 1 cylinder and it took like 10,000 rpm for the 4th to kick in. So we I replaced the plugs, got a K&N filter, cleaned the carbs, fixed the broken piece from the guy before me, and did a jet kit for the Yoshi full exhaust. Think it gonna run like a dream now.

that's one way to tier an f2 for a beginner... cut off 3 cylinders. How it managed to idle on one cylinder will keep me up all night
