Just wanted to ask the experts. how much differance is there in a 24mm carb and a 28mm carb? This would be on a 72cc honda motor. Looking at top end speed. how much faster would it be?
Thanks in advance
Too Much Carb

Greetings:
The Collective requires more information about your setup to answer precisely.
See Arreche 17.5 thread. Unless you port and open/tune exhaust, adding more carb does not always add speed. Sometimes it works against you, and makes part-throttle riding unpleasant.
In my case, the 17.5 is not the limiting factor to Flash's top of 60+. There's only so much 65 or 72cc can do...
YMMV

like wheelman said, depends on overall setup

on smaller carbs you can mill the rear of the throttle slide 1ml. at a time ,thats old school.
