I always hate it when I’m searching threads for answers to any particular issue that I’m trying to fix and all of a sudden the thread which I’m...
Great, thanks Al, I had already ordered the carb to intake clam but couldn’t find any big enough for the carb to airbox joint so thanks for the...
Chris the small bore carb bowl bleeders don’t go the the vapour box, they just go “overboard” towards the bottom of the engine as with most other...
That makes more sense, so the Haynes manual names it incorrectly as an “overflow” , not unlike Haynes to get it wrong!.
Thanks Al, yes that’s the one “Carb bleeder tube”, still seems an odd thing to do with a pipe that potentially carries fuel, but I’m sure Ducati...
Thanks Jon, so it does go to the black box, there is a “spigot” for it to mount onto on the top fwd corner of the box (ref photo), it wasn’t...
Thanks Chris, I’ll have to check the inlet size for the 696, when I searched earlier I found nothing for 900ss but lots of stainless carb clamps 8...

I spoke to Al, he was very helpful, float height should be 12mm on the larger side of the float (the non diamond shaped side) , that’s what mine...
Hi Chris, what I’ll do today is temporarily swap the slide guide from the other carb , if it sits fully home then it’s a good clue that there is...
Hi Chris, both the seat and slide guide look perfect, also cleaned them thoroughly so it’s not debris, I didn’t have much time earlier but my...
Thanks for the replies, I’ll have a play around with the slide guide tomorrow (that said it’s good weather tomorrow and there’s bikes to ride )...
Taking my carbs off to clean them I noticed that one of the plastic carb slide guides wasn’t flush with the carb body, this is only on the RH...
