trialsrfun Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 Any one tried an Amal Premier 20mm carb on a 199cc Triumph Tiger Cub, would welcome your feedback please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naichuff Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 Yes I have one fitted to my cub Just fitted a longer inlet tipping the carb to less of an angle and fitted a 2.5 slide today Still to be tried out It has a flat spot off idle but it may not be the carb but other factors ie ignition or exhaust The rider said it felt better (to icy to really tell) and could not get the engine hot 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brucey Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 I use a Delorto on my Cub. Have never looked back since! O.k., you may not be able to do the Scottish 2 Day Classic, but I wasn't going to anyway :-) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naichuff Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 (edited) Yes I have also used other carbs but the bike is entered for the SSDT Pre65 so requires an AMAL to be fitted PS Project on going Edited January 14, 2017 by naichuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fitting an Amal carb appeals but only if there is a performance improvement to be had. Ironically the Cub as far as I know was never fitted with a concentric carb as production ceased around the time the concentric was launched. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naichuff Posted January 22, 2017 Report Share Posted January 22, 2017 Bike was used today and went well with the longer inlet track and carb more upright Changed the slide as well Yes they were never fitted with this carb but that was all you could get new when this event started My B31 never ran right with the concentric but now runs as sweet as a nut on the new monobloc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
