SG,

Just my thoughts......
I run a 39mm FCR and it has been a great carb with only one exception. It has no choke so it makes things slightly harder to start in the cold weather.. It was a very noticable improvement over the stock carb with my setup.

This is things I have heard....

Lectron carb is great for the track but it does not have an accelerator pump which will present problems for the average recreational trail rider.

Quicksilver carb... I have heard from some people that they just dont work well most of the time and are unreliable. This is just what I have heard, I have no experience with this carb..
