side by side comparision
Here's a side by side comparison by TheGageinator http://chinariders.net/showpost.php?...20&postcount=1 Looks like the inlet and outlet are slightly larger. I'm just curious if anyone has done a comparison between the two. How much more power?

The reason I bought a Mikuni for my Hawk was simple: it was an easy swap that has been tested and documented. I picked up the $35 carb from Amazon. Then I found someone on the forum that had the same mods and was at the same elevation as me. They used 115 main, 30 slow and had the mixture screw two turns out. I ordered the jets, put them in, and installed the carb. It fired right up and was nearly dead-on!
I'm interested in an easy swap so I can enjoy the bike, and I have no problems piggybacking off the victories of others. |

...and that's what China Riders is all about (besides being cheap ;-))! For the last bunch of years, it's about carving paths and finding parts so others don't have to go through the same ordeal. Find something accessible and readily available that works, and spread the word. After all, there will be yet another handful of newbies tomorrow with many of the same questions.

Hey ARH you start spending $80 on a carb around here and you might get tossed from the forum. Those are for them 1 percenters 😁
Just kidding, had I known about them I might have gotten one before the $30 one. |

Speaking of hawk carbs....
Just looked inside of mine, and i have a 40 pilot jet!!!!!!!! Why the heck is it that size? I thought it would've been a 20 or so.... :-/ NO wonder why I have to crank in the idle screw to start it... |

or are you meaning the air/mixture screw? the size of the pilot jet is inter linked with the size of the main jet.. The pilot jet dosn't suddenly turn off after a certain rev range is hit it feeds fuel all the time... " theres no tap or switch on the pilot jet to shut it off" big pilot/small main .. colder climits... small pilot/big main .. hotter climits... but the combined fuel flow of both combinations at high rpms should be the same.. thats could be a lot of the issue with the china bike jetting... they will be prob jetted perfectly in some climits... The Yamaha TTR250 sold in the UK/europe have diffrent jet combinations the the ones sold here & Ozzie... ...
