klemet banshee Posted September 26, 2009 Report Share Posted September 26, 2009 Your gonna get allot of diffrent answers hahah so heres mine. in my opinion i love it!. i ride tight trails and some wide open fire roads hill climbs mx style tracks. i have gained a crap load of bottom and lost a little on the top but doesnt matter to me. easier jetting when ever you need it less thumb cramp better gas milage and just more torguey if thats a word hahha. downs are you lose topend speed/power doesnt breath like 2 carbs would. i have no complaints lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shogs Posted September 26, 2009 Report Share Posted September 26, 2009 My opinion is if you get a single carb you HAVE to get some low mid pipes. I got +4 timing, vf3's(not preferable for this style of riding), 22cc domes, pt mids, and a agg trail port with stock gearing and I love how my shee rides. If your not doing mostly if not all trails then stick with stock carbs or some 28's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snopczynski Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 The single carb kit doesn't get you a ton more power down low, it makes the bike accelerate faster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Run your fuel lines and what not, and whether your running a box or pods then you might have to remove the box. I think you can find a happy spot in the middle without having to swap carbs all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
