Super Jet please help tuning mikuni 46mm buch shot carbs

[tstewart]

If there is anyone that might be able too help me with these mikuni 46mm buchshot carbs. I have a 845cc superjet built by group K with a factory b pipe msd total loss with a rivia intake, an carbon fiber reeds. the jetting sizes that are in these carbs are 120 low jet an for the main jet 120 as well with a 95gram pop pressure spring, with a 2.o needle an seat. the problem i seem too be having is it always has some kind of bog in the mid range an transfer no matter what i set the carbs at. an my pop off is about 16lbs pure carb .

Hello , I know this was last year , but what was your final remedy ? I have these buckshots and they are killing me with this bog issue

Honestly, Buckshots are great carbs on Race skis. But on Freestyle ski's they are hard to tune...... Not impossible, but hard.
Good luck

Quoted from the man himself, definitely words of wisdom if you are trying to use them for freestyle/freeride:

These are Old school racing carbs and as BK said not enough bottom end signal with them, you can make them hit better w/higher pop-off/bigger pilot/smaller main but you will have a carb that will load up if you are freestyle/freeriding. Sell them on flea-bay and get a set of brand new matching pair of stock mikuni 46mm's or go w/ a ATP single manifold w/ a novi 48mm freestyle carb. Then you will be miles ahead in the 'I can't tune it!' department....
