The basis of these notes have come from a series of website printouts I obtained over the last couple of years in my effort to understand how the Mikuni BDSR39 carburetors work on my Suzuki SV650. From these printouts, I’ve produced this document aimed at rejetting the SV carburetors yourself rather than taking your bike to a dyno shop and getting it done for you. While a dyno shop will probably produce a more accurate torque/power curve, the DIY wrench monkey will be satisfied in the knowledge that he/she has done it themselves and in doing so, has learned more about their bike as a result. Be aware that rejetting your bike on a dyno normally takes 1 – 2 days, however, doing it yourself is going to take much longer due to the number of times you have to strip down and rebuild your bike for the road tests. To makes things simpler and help you get it right, I’ve divided the rejetting procedure into steps which need to be completed in sequence or you’ll simply compound any problems that you may come across in a later process.

Once in while the Road-Tests.com team gets a car that, as we walk towards it, sends a tingle down our spines. A car that has sex appeal, confidence and style. Bucket loads of style. When we see a car like that; we smile. We sit in it. Then we smile some more. Then we simply say “come on then, show me how good you are”. And, just occasionally, it does. Then we have to, reluctantly, hand it back. Very reluctantly. Meet one of those cars Peugeot 407 Hdi Coupé The Peugeot Coupé has the confidence to know that it doesn’t have to set out to impress anyone. It oozes self confidence and style. In typical Gallic fashion it simply says “I’m here if you want me” if you don’t it shrugs its shoulders, knowing you will give it a second look.
