ugly butt has some aftermkt carb..
I did not know there was an a.m. carb that fit these suckers.

Has accellerator pump and I can't read the numbers or name of it
since it squirted me in the face.

If it is real and does exist , it could've saved me tons of trouble and almost a marriage with 3 or 4 other 250 engines.
Black plastic lever choke, if that helps.

Runs GREAT btw.

Hope everyone is having fun.

It looks like a stock Carb to me like the one on my 250SX that I sold. Its a Keihin for sure which Honda used. They do make after market carbs though.

Stock SX carbs have cable activated chokes, it's not the stock carb.............

I think 85 was a Keihin 03 and they start like crap in the cold, Keihin 08 was on the 86/87 I believe (been out of the SX picture for years now).

It has an accelerator pump I see, 400EX? or did the 300EX have one also? not sure......

Oops! That's correct, mine did have the cable activated choke with the dash control.
