amiller Posted August 30, 2007 Report Share Posted August 30, 2007 Anyone running a pwk series carb on their bikes. I built a competition vintage bike and used the 200x Honda motor. The bike runs horrible with the stock Kiehen. Every time it gets bounced around under low to no throttle it stalls. I think the carb is all wrong for trials applications anyway. The floats are not even adjustable. After a lot of screwing around with the stock carb I switched to a tlr 200 carb. This made the bike run much more reliable but lost a noticable amount of power. 22mm instead of the 24mm stock carb. Even with different jetting the power does not come back. Swapped in a Delorto from a gas gas after building a adapter. Now this is a 26mm carb. Bike runs quite well now with one minor problem. Going from idle to high throttle or high throttle to idle the bike sometimes wants to stall. As long as you are aware of this its not that big of a deal. A little clutch slipping keeps everything going fine. I can get a 24mm delorto PHB series I think, just like the 26mm on the gas gas. I have also seen a 24mm pwk series made by BGM. It looks just like the delorto VHST d slide. The scooter people seem to really like this carb and say it gives a quicker response than the stock PHB delorto the scooters come with. Anyone had any experience with this carb or any suggestions. The bike workes really well and if the carb issue is straightened out the bike will be excellent.
