    Tri-moto carb options?

    So I started playing with my tri-moto 175 again after getting it back together. When I fired her up (after some tinkering) it revs really high, I checked for vacumm leaks and didn't seem to find any. I think it has to do with the carb, I took it all apart and cleaned it out with carb cleaner and blew it all out with compressed air. I would like to know what other carb I could use for my tri-moto, becasue I can't seem to find any tri-moto carbs forsale.


    Thanks

    Did you have your air filter assembly hooked up? Mine always revs high without the air filter hooked up.

    No, I don't I've been looking for a stock intake assembly on ebay because mine never came with one. I was thinking of just getting a foam style aftermarket filter for it.

    I wonder if a tri-z carb would be cool enough to work on it, lol...

    I think a blaster carb might work
    1985 Honda 200x
    - 30mm Carb
    - DG Exhaust
    - Rear Wheel Spacers
    - K & N Filter

    blaster carb is not far off of a tri-z carb.

    Well, Pretty much any carb from a 79 or new mx175, it175 or dt175 should work. It will come with a choke handle at the carb, but you can transfer over your choke cable from your stock carb. And you definitely need an air filter and you will have to readjust with just a foam filter since it flows way more air than a stock airbox.

    Ok, thanks for the info, I'm trying to get the trike running good so that I can have some fun with it. I don't think I will be letting it go anytime soon.......
