DuneDS650, if you want it to work it will.
Just taking a wild stab at the measurements, my Lectron is almost 4 inches taller than my stock carbs, which are VERY close to the tank on a Raptor. I used a heat gun to shape the tank to fit the carb. I don't feel I lost any volume by doing this, just changed the shaped of the tank. I am tickled with the way this carb performs for me!!!! Its only a 44mm, but I think it is enough carb for my motor without being too much (but honestly what do I know).

 

I ask this question because I would really like the answer, not just to blow smoke outa my ***. Now surely I'm not the only guy in the midwest who likes to take trips way out west to varying altitudes, am I?
Now this is like the 3rd time I've asked this question, I can't believe for the life of me why nobody else has asked it. But come on, what's the answer? there's been plenty of time for an expert to figure it out by now, even if the answer was not known the first time I asked the question.
Has anybody out west at 5K bought a Lectron already set-up to work in your altitude? if so, whoever set it up knows the answer so give me his contact info and I'll ask him.

 

That depends on carb set up to begin with. The 46HV is custom setup for every bike thats why they work so good. If I were to go duning at 10,000ft. I would just block off the power jet and lean the needle 2 turns. We were in the works of setting up a Bomb with Greg Row just for fun to do the Pikes Peak Hill Climb last year but we got too busy and he did also. I would have a very specific high altitude setting if that deal had went through. The Lectron changes altitude with out being real finicky.

Incomparison to other carbs like the stock mikuni and the TM mikuni how does the Lectron fair with weather change? and Temp change?
When would you need to adjust? hot dry? hot wet? Cold wet? cold dry? Snow? Etc...

 

Hey guys does Lectron make a smaller carb (42 ?) than the 46???

Thanks

 

They make the 42, 44,46, 48 & 50 in the standard smooth bore, they make the 44,46,48 in the HV series.

 

Im kind of carb stupid so could you tell me the difference in the HV vs smooth bore and is there a preformance gain??

The HV stands for High Velocity. It has a machined sleeve with a transition radius right in front of the needle. This picks up velocity at low rpm and gives instant throttle responce, the sleeve drops down to 42mm at its smallest point. What you get is a 46mm carb with 42mm throttle responce. The smooth bore is more for all out dragracing. Lectron makes carbs in 2mm increments from 30mm to 50mm.

So has anyone got this carb to work with an IMS tank yet?![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

 

I wish, i have the carb and want the tank!!
