There might be a book you can read about that.

Have you seen the SmartCarb SC2? That's a clever operating principle.

Smart carb is exspensive, i dont need a card that alters itself for altitude.

Shida is right you colonials take pride in your ignorance.

There must be a book about the hostility and reluctance of the American to read.

Is this what you’re asking about???  Seems like another gimmick like the swirl attachment they sold for car engines..increase hp and torque plus added gas mileage…ya sure.


Maybe check out the old school 2 strokes racers,they used plenty of tricks to ring out a few extra rpm and/or change the power band. IIRC some would drill holes into the cylinder walls,not sure exactly why. Check out the old Kawi bighorn race bikes,350cc singles that could be built into track monsters.

Going to make one for 99p.

Selling them for £100😂

I use kytronic ignition module, polini carbs and LtH Reed valves :)

 Yup likely cheaper to make and you won’t care when it does nothing but there are suckers everywhere.

I know a guy who made one for his racing lambretta apparently it works on polini carbs.

It’s in the middle of the Venturi and increases velocity in the first 2/4 of slide position.

He just put the horizontal part in the carb.

I am looking at stage6 carbs think they might be kraut manufacture

This is more to my liking. Always wanted a big bore single but no one made anything I liked until I discovered the new CCM offerings.

60hp and 300 lbs was something I thought would make a nice ride,closest I came to that was a 400cc 4 by Honda but it just didn’t make enough hp. Now you can just break out your wallet and buy one off the shop floor.

Also I’m afraid my riding days are long gone and it’s too much coin to just sit around wait for a 10 minute ride once a week type thing.
