Flatslide Options

[swifty]

been looking at a flatslide from the oz oko site for some time now...anyone got one of these before?

basicially I want to know if anyone has installed one to a Sherco 03 250? is it easy to fit?

is there a cheaper alternative eg just buy a carb alone?

I have read some other posts here about clearance issues

anyone?

Hi Simon,

Yes I've had them all.....except for the Dellorto VHST.

What's the reason you want to change from the standard Dellorto?

My guess is you'll need an OKO 26mm and the right pilot and main jets for your local conditions.....that will get you started.

There has been many past threads written on this....just do a search for Keihin and OKO, filtered to this Shecro forum.

Best of balance.

I have a oko gotten from the oz importer & love it, bikes starts easier & will continue pulling at lower revs than with the dellorto.

The rear boot they supply isn't really right but the keihin one from sherco allows removal & replacement of the airbox as easily as with the original carb. I can't remember the price but look at splatshops site as thats where I got mine

They also supply a universal throttle cable which I threw across the workshop, I hate those things. You can remove the adjuster from the dellorto & it screws into the top perfectly which allows use of the standard cable

If you do buy either a oko or keihin the good thing is that parts are interchangeable & cheap on ebay, about $25us for a set of 10 jets & full rebuild kits aren't much more

Feel free to contact me & I'll try to explain the ins & outs of it
