    Edlebrock? Why on earth would you want one for a trike? Stick with Keihn and Mikuni.

    But yeah, I'd jump on that trade. Especially if the trike is in good shape.

    DO THE TRADE!

    Edelbrock carbs are awesome, from a techo standpoint, but they're pricey.
    Will it outperform a Mikuni or Keihin on an old 250R?
    Not enough to warrant spending the extra money.

    I've used their carbs on mine and my brother's hot rods and classic cars for years, they're EXCELLENT.

    Just my 2 cents.
    Hate to see you spend unnecessarily.

    Yah I always heard that Edelbrocks were more for 4-stroke performance too, but go for that trade IMO!

    You be a fool if you didn't do the trade! I'd stay away from that Edlebrock though, I love mine in my truck but you won't catch me with one on a 2-stroke.

    do the trade!!! that is an awesome deal!

    as for the carb...edelbrocks are only good on 4 strokes in my opinion
    1985 Honda 350X - a lot of performance stuff, everything but a cam, hope to get one soon
