i have heard of people putting a bigger carb on their 185 to gain more power could i keep the 185 carb and rebuild it with a kit for a 200? will this help at all?

 

are you just looking for a bigger jet???????? If you do I have a 108 I will send you for free, but I think your stock one is a 95....let me know if you want it.

Have you done any engine mods on it yet? Exaust pipe, cam, porting, or anything? To utilize a bigger jet or carb you need to do some other stuff first. Let us know all the stuff done to it and we will hook you up.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

Yes, the 185 and 200 carbs are identical other than the mainjet, pilot jet, and needle taper. You can use a carb kit for an ATC200 in a 185 carburetor. It is basically the same thing as adding a "Jet kit" when used on the ATC185 engine, and it should run fine because the 185 is jetted lean from the factory. (The 200 was as well)

The only cost effective carburetor on the market is the XR200R carb. It's 2mm larger, but you need the larger XR intake too and it will require mods to align your carb with the airboot to the airbox. The XR intake puts the carburetor in a "straight shot" direction to the center of the frame.

 

Wow Knowsalot......we replyed at the exact same time [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] Little odd for you to be on at this time of day isn't????

 

i just purchased the bike and havent done any sort of mods yet. what would you guys suggest i do first, and im on a tight budget.

 

I believe you can put a used 200x cam in it. If I sell this stupid laptop I am trying to get rid of, I am getting a different cam for mine and I will let you know on my old cam. Higher compression piston is another mod (that will total about $70 with everything) Exhaust is another mod(less that $100)

 

alright that would be cool, if you sell the laptop let me know on that cam

 

according to knowsalot you can run a larger jet in it they was your trike is right now....do you want that 108 I have? if so, pm me your address and I will send it to you.

 

hey thrash if he doesn't want it i'll take it. I have a 200s. but do you think it will work.

 

No prob pondrunner, I am going to put a 110 in mine so I will have 2 extras. PM me you address and I will ship it out.
