What bike carbs to buy

I'm thinking about replacing my trouble prone Holley carb with bike carbs (not TB's). I have a mostly stock 1300cc xflow. What size bike and brand would be best? My locost is used only on the street if that matters. Thanks Russ

For a 1300 cc engine I would think something in the 36 - 38mm bracket, you don't want to go too big.

Try the Yamaha Fazer 600, Suzuki GSXF600, for smaller carbs, or the Yamaha R6, Honda CBR600, Suzuki GSXR600, Kawasaki ZZR 600, ZX6 for Larger carbs.

All the above went injection late 90s early 2000s, so there are plenty on the market.

Macc man, thanks I'm just in the thinking stage right now. Plus shipping to the States would be a killer. Russ
