I have used Keyster float valves and found them to be excelent quality. However I opted for genuine Mikuni jets and needles, some from motocarb and some from NRP. Just google both. Motocarb has complete referbished carbs at good prices.

I'm quite sure there are people out there with nothing but good words to say about them. Maybe it's a "luck" thing. I can only go by my own experience, I re-built some carbs off an old H*nda twin a couple of years ago. I started off on factory settings (as you do) and it ran like.....well, like something that needed tha carbs re-building! . No ammount of twiddling seemed to have any effect. It wasn't until I started removing the Keyster bits one by one it started improving. Each bit removed rewarded with a better running engine. In the end the only thing I ended up using were the throttle stop thingies*. Don't even get me started on the state of the float bowl gaskets. I now know what David Blunkett MP (retired) does to supplement his pension!. I ended up cutting them to a reasonable facsimile of the correct shape using a scalpel. A similar experience to a previous poster, apart from all my useless bits ended up in an Utterly Butterly carton. Genuine parts next time for me.




*Technical term.

right then, thats that taken care of.
next question, where do i go for the kits?
