atomant Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 ....and more importantly, tell me what possible benefit a carbon jet has? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lee harris Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 GG offer a keihin as a replacement for both the 280 and 300. I dont think there is a kit available for any other model. I Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coxy Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 gas gas uk do a keihin carb convertion for the gas gas pro and yeh you can fit a keihin on a 125 i think you just have to change the jettings or fiddle about with it, if you`ve got any queries get in touch with them and ask them yourself im sure that they would be very helpfull i think that the keihin carb gives smoother power delivery and allows the bike to rev higher and cleaner or thats what ive been told what do carbon jets do?? ive never heard of them before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ned1 Posted January 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 carbon jets are just the same as normal jets, although i have heard that it will make the bike slightly more powerful.whether this is true or not i don't know, i just want to try some out to see what they do better.

cdn280 Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 carbon jets are just the same as normal jets, although i have heard that it will make the bike slightly more powerful.whether this is true or not i don't know, i just want to try some out to see what they do better. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Its not that it helps make more power, its the .03 of a gram weight savings ! If its true, thats a crazy use of carbon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cleanasawhistle Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 When you're in the shop buying the carbon jets could you get me two litres of Tartan paint, preferably Dulux and also a long weight, metric or imperial will do. Many thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ned1 Posted January 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 what would carbon fibre reeds do? these are probably what i mean and have got confused. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nigel dabster Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 almost as good as boysens! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lee harris Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 carbon reeds are used on difficult sections where normal reeds dont provide enuff griff. Drive through the carbon reeds, squash them into the mud, and you can climb the rock on a fsie! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtt Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 what would carbon fibre reeds do? Typically carbon reeds are used in application where your looking for improvements in high rpm power. There characteristics tend to work well at high rpms, but not necessarily and often the opposite effect at lower rpms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
