After many years swearing at, and figuring out to a minor degree, Dellorto carbs, I am now facing an FCR on my 2006 FE450. I know near nothing about it. It works great, except..... when in slow going on tight trails the motor eventually develops a hesitation right off idle, where I like to blast...

I've just got hold of an FCR41 to replace my delorto due to starting problems. Now this came straight off a VOR570 factory supermotard so would be a reasonable bet to at least start, so i could check the set-up.
