Re: LiteTek Carb Kits
Bit of a late replay as i did say to LiteTekBlair i would do a review on the kit he sells for this bike.
I received the Kit in June and fitted them as soon as.
I was really impressed by the quality of the material and also that it was a FULL KIT not just a few o rings. I didn't expect to get the rubbers for the choke or the very detailed gasket for that is in the float bowl.
All the seals were a really good fit, I found that the rubbers for the choke made it retract a bit slower when turning choke off but after some use this went back to working as normal.
I have used my bike frequently since then, including in this horrible weather. daily commutes of over 80 miles a day and i feel that this kit is a massive improvement over standard. Yes you think the kit may cost allot but personally i think that it is well worth the investment. You get allot more seals for your money. I have had several carbs now and now they can be a real pain in the back side. Once you fit these then you dont have to worry about them for a long time.
Really apologize for the late post.

Re: LiteTek Carb Kits
Thanks Mr Marsbar,
I am glad that your bike is running well. Nothing wrong with the late post. It is good that you have been using them for a while; it adds credibility to your report.
The kits now contain throttle shaft seals, also in viton, and butterfly screws. I always plan to improve them or make them more comprehensive, but the development time is usually very long. As for the cost, almost all of the parts in my kits are made from viton which is a lot more expensive than NBR. Viton, which is a flouroelastomer, costs approximately 10 times as much as NBR source http://www.moldeddimensions.com/elastomercost.htm.
cheers
