    carbs for 200x?

    what carb are you 200x owners running on your trikes? what is the best performance carb, biggest size, etc....
    1985 KXT 250 Tecate - kx cylinder, kx ignition, bassani headpipe, answer silencer, v-force reeds, 38mm airstyker carb, +2 franks swinger, raptor rear shock.

    1996 YSF240 Blaster - maxxed out!!!

    Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting "HOLY SH-T, what a ride!"

    I am thinking of putting a 28mm flatslide on mine, there was a dg article floating around on here about a DG kit that used to come with a 28mm mikuni flatslide, that with a cam and a pipe, made the ol' x "scream like a banshee".
    DG sells a keihin I think, possibly the 27pd deathman is talking about at http://www.dgperf.com
    Caution
    Do not "POP WHEELIES" and run for any distance with the ATC. The oil capacity is relatively small and the oil will drain out of the oil pump area thus causing loss of oil pressure, resulting in costly engine damage -CLYMER

    thats the one, it performs good. Some loss of bottom end. Without alot of work done, any bigger than a 28mm is too big. My 86 200x is getting more motor work, so we'll see if the 27mm needs a bigger one
