2strokesmoker Posted May 4, 2009 Report Share Posted May 4, 2009 just be sure that you are jetting little rich if happen anything you have to buy new pair of cylinder with this bore If you blow it up and only has to b board .020 more would be fine. Then your at your last bore with .100 over. Thats what mine are at. As far as the carbs?????? Not to sure. Not experienced enough to comment on that. I was just saying .080 over is not your last bore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

docjcwatson Posted May 4, 2009 Report Share Posted May 4, 2009 yes the carbs are to small... go with 34s or 35s... if you like riding wide open these will suite you real well Correct! Sounds to me, like you need more top end. A 34mm or 35mm carb of your choice would be a great upgrade to what sounds like a pretty nice motor already. Welcome to the HQ!!

jbooker82 Posted May 4, 2009 Report Share Posted May 4, 2009 Your carbs will run that engine just fine. If you are wanting to spend some money and upgrade to a better carb then I would go with a pair of Keihin PWK 33's. Get a boss racing intake. It lifts the carbs up and back a little so the LH carb doesnt hit on the clutch arm. It also gets rid of the crossover tube / boost bottle wich ever you have. Another good investment would be to ditch the FMF's for a set of CPI's. The are a top end pipe and would go great with the dune port. If you were running a drag port then I would have said PWK35's and Shearer pipes. josh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docjcwatson Posted May 4, 2009 Report Share Posted May 4, 2009 Good point. I wasn't thinking about the dune port. PWK 33's would be a better choice. And cheaper! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sled Posted May 4, 2009 Report Share Posted May 4, 2009 (edited) his carbs are fine. I would start looking for a set of used ported cylinders on here. maybe pick up a timing plate and few other small things. BTW i would get a compression gauge and test your bike, then post back with what you got. Edited May 4, 2009 by sled Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CPI's aren't a bad idea, you may want to start looking for a set. Edited May 5, 2009 by sled Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
