Couple of other options to consider would be a flat slide mikuni or maybe chase down a 2nd hand carby of a CRF 450?

Hi Mick,

Didn’t know the CRF450 bolts on? I was under the impression there was too much dickin’ around and mods to be done to make it work.

I could also maybe get someone who knows how to tune these XR tractors. I have read many guys not having the hesitation symptom with stock carby’s.

THe CRF one probably wont bolt straight on without an adapter. If it’s off idle bog you are trying to sort out, have a look at the Mikuni then. I ran one on my 600 and Chicken runs one still. The Mikuni made a world of difference, especially getting rid of the “post jump bog” it suffered from. They are also a sinch to start again after a drop too,where as the stocker carbs flood easily. Ballards do a kit and I think from memory it was around the $435 mark for the Carby , cables and new Throttle tube etc..
