Re: 220 carb on 200?
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

220 carb on 200?
perhaps a flywheel weight might be an easier option...simple to fit & remove ?

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

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