    Introduction to Carbs

    Up until 10 month ago I had never ridden or driven anything that had carbs. Prior to Jan. I had never touched a carb. But now I have checked float levels, bench adjusted the floats, changed out main jet, changed out PAJ2 jets, adjusted my needles and synced my carbs. Some of them a couple of...

    flatslide carbs with velocity stacks

    Group, I'm in the process of purchasing a VMAX with this set up. 4" velocity stacks are in use right now. I expect that I'll need to change them, they're real awkward with a riders knees. One of the frequent contributors to this forum has modified 4" stacks with a 45 degree twist, to offer...

    Shipping Carbs

    Sorry for this dumb question but I'm nowhere near my bike right now and am trying to figure domestic shipping costs. Anyone know what size box the carbs will fit in (still racked together) and how much they will weight? It'd be sweet if they would fit in one of the large flat rate boxes...

    Electronic fuel injection- CV carbs to TBI

    Check out this simple fuel injection conversion kit. You can still keep the V-boost! You don't need trigger wheels to run it. It triggers off the negative side of the #1 coil. Simple easy, quick. It uses the Microsquirt or Megasquirt ECU. www.roadstercycle.com

    Ok, so my Carbtune Pro has arrived and I've finally got time to go at the carbs.... I'll preface with the following statement: I've never done this before and know nothing more that what I have researched on this forum and on the net. However I feel confident enough that I'm not 'afraid' to...

    Fuel pump clicks to fill carbs but where does the gas go

    I realize the fuel pump fills the carbs after the bike has sat but where does the gas go that it is replacing ? Evaporate ? Or does it go to the engine and end up in the oil ? Thanx for your help .
