220 carb on 200?

[ecojbr]

Thinking about putting a 220 carb on the wifes 200 to calm it down on top. Anyone done this? If so tell me what you thought

[diymirage]

imteresting idea
ive heard of people using 200 carbs to wake up the 220 so it stands to reason going the other would calm down a 200
not sure if its a good idea though, kinda like putting a pillow over your face to keep you qieut maybe ?

Sure, if the wife needs it a little more mellow, why not? You will be sacrificing some top end and gaining throttle control down low.

Honestly, the bike has never seen top end till I get tired of it smoking and clean it out. thought this way she might not be scared to hold it open some more

perhaps a flywheel weight might be an easier option...simple to fit & remove ?

[ecojbr]

Would love to find a cheap one to try. Bought a 220 to put the head/cylinder combo on my bike, so the carb was a gimmie

[ecojbr]

does anyone have actual experience with a flywheel weight on a 200? On mine I actually cut 8oz off and love it.

If your near me, I would be willing to swap my 220 carb for your 200 carb

i think i still have my 220 crab (no slide or cap) laying around.
I can check if you're interested.

already put the carb on. I bought a 220 for the cylinder/head for my 200 hybrid. But thanks for the offer. JUst haven'
t had the time or weather to try it out. Have the rear shock apart now to make it shorter.
