Can some one please explain this to me? Stock carbs with TORS are a drag to work on. Flatslides are easy to tune. As for carb size determination: Depends on some variables...intended use, current mods, elevation. Unless you are drag racing only, the best carb is the smallest one that will do the job for your riding type/motor build. Carb venturi's need velocity to atomize fuel well so if you have a stockish motor, the 28's would be a good choice. I run the 33PWK's and they fit my motor build perfectly.
