OE Style or Air Striker

Thanks for the replies. Looks like I will do a tear down this wknd. Hard to imagine any dirt in carb as its been cleaned recently, and I am using an in line filter since the new top end in March.

SS: The polishing worked great for me. I havent had this issue since I did it until now.
Doug: Are you still running the oem PWK? We may be the only ones left....

Pretty happy with the PWK myself.

Yes, still using the stock carb. An RB is probably my next move.

Yeah, that was a cool little tip that another member posted years ago. It saved my butt before!

BTW, my carb is original but been modified by RB.

I did check in with him a few months ago and heard he's not doing the mod any longer. Only way is to buy a new Keihin from him. I dont think Im at that point-yet!

I think I am leaning toward RB AS carb.

- Please let me know if I have this about right:
Both type of RB carbs start from stock Keihin bodies.
AS - a bit better for riding that puts the carb at extreme angles.
OEM - a bit better riding at WOT.

Primarily I am riding trials-ish 1st gear trails at home, and the single track or jeep hill climb trails at Walker Valley, WA (roots, rocks, & concrete blocks). Elevation: 0-2000. My riding inclinations - I am considering switching to trials tires.

Thanks very much for seat polishing and other tips. The floor, in KDX section of the boat shed, looks a bit like an AMF Harley running synthetic oil lives there.
