bansheesandrider Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 How big are they bored? I have stock 26mm carbs bored to 28mm on my bike but it is a straight bore all the way through. They work fine, I have no problems setting my idle speed or the bike wanting to idle to high, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bansheesandrider Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 The purpose is to get a bigger carb for more flow without having the expense of aftermarket carbs. The other advantage is that depending on where you ride you can still get parts for them at the dealership or other ATV shops. In the Oregon Dunes, there are several places that have parts for stock carbs, but unless you just need jets or a complete carb maybe, there are few places that have parts for Keihen carbs. You can get Keihen parts at some Honda shops as Honda liked to use them OEM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
