Valvoline heavy duty diesel oil. 15w-40 because I had a gallon in my shop. I will probably switch to the that oil that reminds me of Nutella next year. I also used DOT 3 brake fluid because I also had some of that.

Hawk250 stock carb is just as good the 35 dollar mikuni carb.
You will have to upgrade both of them.

 Law suit oil from Dollar General has to be better than what came with the bike. |

It depends on the Keihin clone; some will actually accept Keihin jets. Mikuni carbs (even fakes) will always accept Mikuni jets, IME. A Keihin clone that will accept jets you can actually find is worth keeping.

Thanks for being so well-mannered. The rest of the story is that you'd need to measure a jet in question, and compare it with the dimensions posted on www.jetsrus.com. In other words, I can't tell you if a Mikuni jet would fit a Keihin clone unless I had a Keihin clone jet to work with. What complicates that is Keihin clone carbs are inconsistent, whereas Mikuni carbs always use the same jets, IME.
The typical 30mm Mikuni carb that several of us know and love uses N100.604 Large Round main jets and VM28/486 slow jets.
