Thanks Mutt, i was thinking you were running a bigger carb than the 28mm ----- ORIGINAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS ----- The MT58A is off a 50's Jacobsen lawn mower motor. You can run a 28mm Mikuni on your bike, but it will not "bolt right on" To do it "right" you would need extreme porting of the intake port. You could go with a smaller Mikuni, such as a 22mm. That would only required minimal porting and a special manifold to be made. Your bike will run MUCH better with a bigger carb. Email me if you are interested in the modification. Mutt ----- ORIGINAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS ----- is anyone running one of those 28mm mikuni flat slide carbs, if so, can you tell me if they are any good i found them on a cushman website as a stage 2 carb. im looking to replace the mt 58a carb that im running now that i believe is from a 196? a or au model topper or a cushman. any ideas or comments would be a great help thanks |
