wiggans50cal Posted April 6, 2008 Report Posted April 6, 2008 i need advise on a carb choice. the air fuel adjustment screw hole stripped out of my stock right carb so i was going to just go bigger. i have found a couple of carb sets on ebay and need to know which to purchase. there are a set of factory 26mm carbs that include two k+n filters, billit intakes and they have been ported and polished. they are buy it now at 150. then i found a set of 28mm flatsides with a starting bid of 140. they are both ending today. what do i do???????? also, would the flatsides accept my twist throttle cable that is on my wheeler. the cable fits my stock capped carbs... thanx for your help and post!!!!!!!! -wiggans50cal Quote

slowblueshee2 Posted April 9, 2008 Report Posted April 9, 2008 Go with the keihin's. They are great carbs. Also if you have eliminated your thors on the stock carbs, that will be the cable you need for keihins Quote
