funny you mention that. i have a PWK comming for a 83-490 and a 38MM Air Stryker comming for a 81-250. I understand they are great carburators.

Hey ECM, let me know how the PWK goes on the 83 490. I am about to start restoring mine and am thinking of ordering a PWK39 for it.

How did this turn out??
I fitted a 38 Keihin PWK on my 81 490 last night, but could really use some jetting hints... :)
