socal_450rider Posted November 10, 2006 Report Posted November 10, 2006 im planning on ordering a cub, and was wondering if the single 35mm i have will work on a 421 cub until i can get bigger carbs Quote
jbooker82 Posted November 10, 2006 Report Posted November 10, 2006 Why dont you just get another keihin pwk35mm carb. Running a cub on a single carb is kind of shooting your self in the foot. Quote
locogato11283 Posted November 10, 2006 Report Posted November 10, 2006 no. you need at least dual 35mm pwk to make it run right. if you wanna run a single carb get a woods port and keep your stock cylinders.. Quote
FASTOYS Posted November 10, 2006 Report Posted November 10, 2006 Kinda of like siphoning gas out of your truck with a straw, you can do it , and it will work , but not the best for sure. lol We have built several Cubs with singles and they work alittle better with the 38 single IF you need to go that route. I would recommend larger duals if you can. Quote

I agree....my 421 ran DAMN good with a pair of 35PWKs. Just pick another one up. The ONLY reason I sold them is because I'm going alky with a fuel pump, or I would've had no problem leaving them on there.... Quote
Polish Posted November 10, 2006 Report Posted November 10, 2006 I rode a 421 cub with a single carb 2 weeks ago out at Glamis (china wall) Quote
socal_450rider Posted November 11, 2006 Author Report Posted November 11, 2006 i already have ported stock cylinders with the single 35mm runs hard but i want more, ya i think ill try to pick up another 35mm, anybody tried the 38mm single on a cub? Quote
Bansh-eman Posted November 11, 2006 Report Posted November 11, 2006 I rode a 421 cub with a single carb 2 weeks ago out at Glamis (china wall) i was on the same bike polish is talking about... it has potental but like he said Quote
jeepman128 Posted November 11, 2006 Report Posted November 11, 2006 No way... I rode that same bike with the cheetah cub.. Man.. that bike gets around...( OK, so it was mine that scared everyone away from the single carb) OK... so here is the whole thing with the bike with the single carb on the cub.... YES.. it will work and it will be quick compared to what you are used to, but no where near what it could be...PLAIN AND SIMPLE ohh Banshee-man and Polish, the whole reason it wouldn't start off line when ya dumped the clutch was the darn pick-up for the magneto. Our getto rig job to get us through the weekend wasn't alowing for the proper gap for the pickup... oh well.. it got us by.... I replaced the timing plate (again) last week and went out for a ride with the gap where it was supposed to be and it helped out A LOT!! it was night and day difference from that sunday... the damn thing set my ass on the ground....literally...It WILL actually launch now!... but back to the whole single carb deal....Don't ever buy a single carb oncce you have the cub, but if you are running one now and can't afford to upgrade to duals.. it will get you by.
