Air striker?

Post by scheckaet »

What is the airstriker? Is it just a mod on the carb or is it a complete different carb?
I went on RB website and I can't see the diference between the airstriker and the regular carb mod.
What am I missing?

For those of you that have tried one or the other, how much did you get out of it? Is it as noticeable as when you replace your stock pipe with an FMF or other aftermarket?


Thx

The airstryker is a version of the PWK carb that has additional venting and air direction features.

I bolted an RB head and RB Airstriker on my 98 200not that long ago. The difference between stock and RB'd is nothing short of amazing. I rode it down the street on bitumen the day I put it all on and damn shat myself when I hit 3rd-4th-5th.

Your OEM carb doesn't look like this:

Re: 'For those of you...'

I've had all three.

As big a difference as a pipe? Not likely.

A close second? Likely

That comparing OEM to RB'd.

Between an RB'd OEM and an RB'd AS? Not as big a difference as either of the above, but plainly noticeable.
