LC4 Carb
Hello all,
was wondering if any overlanders have tried the Keihin FCR41MX carb in the 640 adv yet?
I know there are a lot of fire road riders who have made the change with excellent results and much improvement in power delivery and fuel consumption over the stock Mikuni BST40. I have found the BST40 a real pain in the ass on rough rocky roads and fast dunes where if any sort of negative G is exerted on the carb, it just shuts up shop for a second resulting in very nasty surprises when you need the power most only to find its all on vacation until the carb gets over its hissy fit a second or two later...I note the new 625's have the FCR and the 660 has always had it so it must be good.
Anyway, I am thinking of changing to the FCR and was hoping someone has some long distance miles using it who could comment, especially regarding the claims of better consumption.
Cheers
A
