Mikuni Super BN, circuit by throttle opening

5 rows across 5 columns, read from 1 named source, listed in full below. All 25 cells hold a recorded value. The figures are listed against 5 engine families, named below.

Adjust in this orderCircuitThrottle range it controlsWhat it is forWhere it stops mattering
1Low speed adjusterIdleSets a smooth idle, working with the idle stop screw. Turn it in and out in small increments until the idle smooths out.No effect past 1/3 throttle. Stated as an explicit exception to the overlapping-circuits rule.
2Pop-off pressureJust off idle to 1/4Works with the low speed jet. Set by the needle valve and arm spring combination, and measured with a pop-off pump rather than looked up.The regulator portion has no tuning effect past 1/4 throttle, although it goes on controlling the fuel supply above that.
3Low speed jetJust off idle to 1/3The main fuel metering off idle. Sizes run 50 to 150 in increments of 2.5.Overlaps the high speed jet from about 3/8 throttle, and changing it still affects wide open throttle delivery to some degree.
4High speed jet1/3 to 3/4The primary tuning component from 1/2 to 3/4. Begins contributing at about 3/8, overlapping the low speed jet. Sizes run 50 to 200 in increments of 2.5.Tested by holding a constant 1/2 throttle for a minute then opening fully: hesitation is lean, a second or two of clearing out is rich.
5High speed adjuster3/4 to wide openThe last circuit to set. Clockwise reduces fuel flow, counter-clockwise increases it, and maximum flow is at three turns out from closed.Read on fresh plugs after holding wide open, or on a maximum rpm reading: lean or rich, it will not pull as high an rpm as when it is right.

Applies to: 650, 701, 750, 760, 800sxr
