i finally got out to give my 48 test run..when i first slapped it on i was very impressed with the mid-high pull this carb put out, the only real complaint i had was that the low-end was lazy. eric called me friday to see how the carb was working out and after i told him i thought his carb was lazy on the bottem end, we found out i was still running my air box.after i took my air box off this carb really rips..its low to mid is nothing ive ever felt on my ds. the top end is very similer to what i had on my duals..i think the lectron matches up very well with a 720 and i would strongly suggest it to any one...in consern to the suck shut problem, u can feel a little resistence at first when u step in the throttle, but the throttle pull is so easy(just like stock) u really dont notice it.my thumb was very pleased with the carb..lol...all in all, i think the power is spread out over the power band better than my duals(i have no numbers to prove that). it seems as soon as u shift u are right bck in the power band, u dont have to wind her up. wish i could of rode her longer, my head gasket started leaking oil around the chain tentioner, so i had to put her up and ride my wifes bike..lol..

 

thats good to hear! im running the tm48 but didnt notice much diff. are still going on easter?

 

im going to try, i guess im going to have to order one of those cometic triple layer gaskets for my head this week, hopefully i can get put back together by next weekend so i can get her tested out before the trip..i almost refuse to ride my wifes bike at sahara!!! lol.. what days do u guys plan on going?

 

me and crazy will be there on wends the 23.

 

LOL... you have an eton, sweeet so do i and it does haul butt!! i think im going to bring it.

 

lol...i have to turn that adjustable cdi down to a zero just to keep my daughter from trying to pull the front end up..lol..

 

What duals did you have, FCRs?

 

That is very good to hear about the carb, not the head gasket...but, mine made a huge difference even on my stock bike!

 

sixsixT, i ran the fcr39's..dont get me wrong, there is a ALOT of power to be had with the duals. i just dont have the time to put it on the dyno everytime i change altitudes. they have a ton of top end power, but to me they were lazy everywhere else. i thought about runnung alky to help cure the laziness.if u are a tuner, the fcr mght be for u, i just dont have the talent or the paitience to get them both spot on..
