    Can anybody give me the specs for float height (dry)? And where to measure? #3out of 4 carbs leaking. Never seen a float like these not sure where to measure. They are Mikuni's CV 33mm.

    The 700X fuel level should be 3 MM below the body to bowl seam, +/- 1 MM.

    Dry initial setting—-
    17.5mm……

    measure from the gasket mating surface of the body…..measure from on the flat part, not on the ridge

    measure vertically to the top of ROUNDED part, not the tippy top point
