Duninshee Posted February 15, 2005 Report Posted February 15, 2005 I am looking to put on some new carbs for the new season and I want a pair of Keihin 30mm carbs. I have the mods in my sig. Do you think I would be better off buying a pair of 28mm and boring them to a 30mm or what. Also I have looked on ebay and I was wondering if anyone has run these. CLICK HERE. I want a new set because I have read that boring the stock carbs won't give me any power gain. Help Please. Quote
SuperChris Posted February 15, 2005 Report Posted February 15, 2005 My buddies and I all got our 28mm PWK's as KX100 list carbs from World of Powerspotrs for 170 dollars shipped. Quote

zilladude Posted February 16, 2005 Report Posted February 16, 2005 Both sets of carbs on e-bay are not keihin carbs, they are a copy of the Keihin. Quote
Duninshee Posted February 16, 2005 Author Report Posted February 16, 2005 Are the look-a-likes any good. Quote
zilladude Posted February 16, 2005 Report Posted February 16, 2005 (edited) I have heard about alot of leakage problems on them, probably due to the floats dropping too far & the needles getting stuck open. There is a set of genuine Keihin 28mm PWK's on there for the same price. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...4527672657&rd=1 Edited February 16, 2005 by zilladude Quote
Duninshee Posted February 16, 2005 Author Report Posted February 16, 2005 Do you think I should stick to the 28mm's or should I find a set of 30mm's. Quote

SuperChris Posted February 16, 2005 Report Posted February 16, 2005 Yes, I called them. The tech sayed they wouldn't work and told me I was wasting my money, but I swear on a stack of bibles, They work good. Ask for late model carbs. Stock jetting put me right in the ballpark. Quote
05bansh Posted February 16, 2005 Report Posted February 16, 2005 Check out the Lectron carbs made by packard racing. They are awesome carbs if you are willing to spend the extra $$. Btw, Duninshee are you in Utah? Quote
