XT600E with MIKUNI single carb doable!
Hi all. A few of you might've read that I'm fitting a Mikuni BST40 carb on my 1990 XT600E..
Here is the deal.
IT is doable, BUT.. (HOLD your breath)
Parts needed:- Mikuni BST40 carburetor
- Grizzly 600 2-1intake manifold. part number: 4WV-13586-00-00 (superseeded by 4WV-13586-01-00
- TWO O-rings part number: 93210-36769-00 OR you can use your stock XT's stock manifolds O-rings that fit nicely.
- Grizzly 660 JOINT, CARBURETOR part number: 5KM-13596-00-00
- Two clamps to lock and hold the rubber boot in place.
Now you can stop holding your breath. lol
Rear shock has to be moved a little back about 40-50mm, a mount has to be made.
For the carb to fit in its place you have to CUT some metal on where I'll be pointing on the pictures give or take a little metal lol
Tomorrow a friend welder is comming here to do the work and advise me on what has to be and can be done and what has to be "reinforced"..
