Is there supposed to be a picture? Measure them to figure out the size, Black carbs are OEM

Thanks

Yep, Buckshots.
Sell them while you can. I think you'd be better off even with just plain SBN38's or 44's.

Why?

I've never seen/heard anyone recommend Buckshots for anything, let alone a freestyle setup.
Poor signal, poor bottom end, lots of fuel dumped.

yeah i had dual 44mm buckshots and they sucked, stock single 44mm is night and day much better. You can convert the buckshots to blackjacks from art i believe for about 180 bucks each carb

i think i will keep them this season ( unless i find a good deal on a pair)and see what i wanna do from there. im still new at rideing and do see my self doing any flat water backflips this season or realy any thing else to crazy just wanna get my water legs this season.. the couple times i rode them they didnt seem to burn any more fuel then any one else i rode with. plus my build has pretty muched burned through all my extra money.

Speaking which, when are you going to be all done?

 

[burton391]

hopefully end of the month just going to be waiting on my prop i think, but im going to try and send it out in a few days.
