Carb
« on: September 13, 2007, 05:50:42 am »
Gidday mates!

Got an easy(?) question with hopefully an easy answear. I have a 1981/1982 Curtis Honda (XR500R engine) with a Mikuni VM roundslide carb. My guess is the carb is a 38mm but I´m not sure... So, is the carb size inprinted on the carb somewhere or is it easy to meassure the carbsize? Perhaps a newbie question to the lot of you but hey! you gotta start somewhere!

 ;D

P.S.

BILL!!! If you read this please drop me a priv mess, I´ll prolly try and contact you on the forum now again when it's up, tried to mail you ALOT of times but but perhaps your mailbrowser sorts hotmail adresses as junkmail?

Anyway, if you still got the DR 250 engines I´ll be glad to relieve you off them!

Btw, you are all very lucky bastards there on "the other" side of the globe, heading for spring/ summer and sunny days on your bikes... Here in sweden the autumn just started, winter is waiting around the corner...

D.S

Full throttle folks!

carb "size" is measured as the diameter of the carb throat on the side that goes to the cylinder
