1996 ZX1100 GPZ ABS

Bought this bike with carburetor issues. Soaked the carbs, installed pod filters, rejetted, and adjusted needles. Runs good now but not real crisp on the throttle response. Probably a throttle adjustment should get it more responsive.

The throttle adjustment only

The throttle adjustment only sets the idle speed. It doesn't do much in terms of the response. You need to figure out at what throttle position the response is slow and work with that circuit. If it is off idle then I would start with turning the fuel screws out in 1/4 turn intervals. Did you remove the fuel screw plugs already?

You're correct. A turn out

You're correct. A turn out did the trick. It's about 4 turns out now.
