Needle looked like 98 nozzle 50 or 60? The tps brkt sure does look like Ken's. Certainly is a well worth investment, glad my stock carb had issues that no one could figure out what to do. If they had, probably would have not gone to this carb 5yrs ago. In the thought process now of air filter set-up to really allow this carb to gulp air.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #350184 Starkruzen (User) Starkruzen Platinum Boarder Posts: 1460 Re:I pulled the trigger on a 42mm Flatside... 1 Year, 2 Months ago   Pump nozzzle 60 Needle 3 clip   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #350225 MightyRoadStar (User) SQUIRREL!

I don't get less than 40mpg ever, and upwards of upper 40 on a solid cruise. My last test cruise was last week, 147 miles at 65mph ...48mpg another run of 121 miles at 80mph...40mpg this was using a GPS for speedo accuracy.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #350347 vegasdave (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1158 Re:I pulled the trigger on a 42mm Flatside... 1 Year, 2 Months ago   If I do anymore mods to my Baby it might be this one. (with the TPS mod).I heard that alone makes a big differance when using the 42.   Logged     If Your Not Moving Forwards,Your Moving Backwards Live To Ride,Ride To Live 06 Road Star Candy Red SMOKIN!!!!   The administrator has disabled public write access. #350362 fishhead (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 316 Re:I pulled the trigger on a 42mm Flatside... 1 Year, 2 Months ago   OK I'll bite , what exactly does this very expensive carb really do for you !!! Is it gas mileage , or is it performance ? From what I'm reading the mileage is no better than a stock carb Was Yamaha that far off with the 40mm ?   Logged     [img size=150][/img]   The administrator has disabled public write access. #350363 fireman922 (User) Chrome won't get ya home, but it will get ya laid.

Cause it is just so flippin cool!! More power on top end and easier to tune. I'd love to see a dyno chart to see how it effects the bottom end.   Logged     Grow Old or Die Trying...   The administrator has disabled public write access. #350372 DocShadow (Admin) Hmmmm .... send beer Admin Posts: 17615 Re:I pulled the trigger on a 42mm Flatside... 1 Year, 2 Months ago   The 40 is a better carb from the 'get on and go' under the various conditions that most would encounter. I find as good as the 42 may be I still have to fiddle with it under extreme temperature or altitude changes.
