Which FMF exhaust?? - Page 4

Your carb is based on the Keihin, and that's what was used in old Hondas (like the XR200). You might be able to take the jet into your local Honda dealer and buy a 110 main that is identical to yours. Just don't tell them what it's for...

that's what i did yesterday and i brought the jets, and carb into the shop, found some slow ones that fit but no main jets.

That one is a flange mount. Is your's a flange mount or does it mount directly to a carb holder ('boot', or intake 'manifold') with a circular clamp?

Enduroadventure · 08-17-2012, 04:23 PM

yes the mount is similar. im more worried about the little hole on the top, Mine doesn't have that at all. also the choke looks a little different there is no cable holder, issue here?.

FastDoc · 08-17-2012, 04:39 PM

I think the hole you are refering to is where the carb cable mounts.

The choke lever position does not matter as long as you get get to it easily enough and there's room for it to operate. :wink:

Enduroadventure · 08-17-2012, 04:44 PM

the carb i have only has 1 hole in the top where the cable goes. the big one in the middle. i dont have a small one off tot he size as pictured here.

No worries. That's a vent or something.

Weldangrind · 08-17-2012, 09:50 PM

That's not a hole. It's ink. It will be a direct fit on your bike, but you'll need to swap your existing choke lever over. You'll need to buy new jets for it, but they're easy to find.

FastDoc · 08-17-2012, 10:05 PM

There you go! :P

Enduroadventure · 08-18-2012, 06:21 AM

Alright good enough for me bought.

Enduroadventure · 09-14-2012, 05:07 PM

Finally getting around to looking for jets for my Mikuni. And I was reading some posts on here and I thought I was looking for a 110 main and a 42 slow but I have now read other posts that say 127-132 main. Can someone help me out here I live at sea level what do I need?

Weldangrind · 09-15-2012, 12:16 PM

With a stock muffler, I'd start with a 110 main and a 25 slow. The Mikuni slow jet numbering system is much smaller than a Keihin, hence your confusion.
