Quick Carb Question

Quick Carb Question
I was looking into buying a new carburetor
for my bike at bikebandit.com and came into
a problem. The carb I'm looking at comes in
two different mount types; standard and flange.
So I just need to know the difference between
the two and how to tell which one I need.
Thanks

Re: Quick Carb Question
just pulling this out of my own thoughts, my 76 xl350 carb is just round and slips into a rubber boot that bolts to the head, a flanged carb would probably bolt straight to the head. I would wait till someone else chimes in though cause I really dont know for sure. other people are probably gonna wanna know what the make, model and year are though.

Re: Quick Carb Question
Yeah mines the same way, using a rubber boot to hold the carb. I'm assuming this is
a standard mount. Because a flange mount would probably be like you said and attach to the motor directly.

Re: Quick Carb Question
Indeed... most all street bikes are based like this. It helps isolate the carbs from vibration during normal daily riding. A hard mount is better suited for track riding.
