Whats this carb all about? BadBones mikuni

[oxnard111]

I have a Mikuni Bad Bones carb that I just pulled off a 750sx that I am parting out. I was wondering is this a good carb, is it a hard to find item (as I have not seen any for sale)? Would this carb be good for a single carb setup on a set of 61x cases? Or 62T cases setup for freestyle? Just wondering if I should keep it for a future project or sell it now. I will take pictures later.

Bad Bones made some cool stuff back in early 90's. They made billet stuff for kawis- Heads,water boxes ect. Did not know they made any modded carbs.

To this day, when I hear "Bad Bones" I see Jeff "Poison" Prieur

If that carb is a round-body, sell it!

BTW: Bad Bones made carbs called "Magnum Jet"...a pair of them for 550/650's retailed for $1,000 (with O.P filters)

Yes, their Magnum Jet carbs worked great, a friend had one on his mod 750 and it ripped, but sucked down the gas too.

Haven't taken pictures yet but is a square body. It is big too like 44mm or bigger.

So any body got anything to say about this square body? Is is worthy to be put on SuperJet or should it be sold?

It looks like you should be able to get it to work well. It looks to still use the std 4 bolt top design that will help keep the airflow speed up for a freestyle set-up. They did good work, their race boats ran well. But get 62t cases and a single intake to use on the 62t cases, junk out the 61x cases as they are to hard to keep the jetting working with that downdraft design.

You are kidding..right?! :bs2: :cool2:

Yes...mainly with a lot of compression motors, (thats how you make freestyle motors work with proper ports) 62t motors are WAY better with jetting when having a lot of compression! Tell me your background??? How many 61x and 62t motors have you built and tuned with using lets say 12:1 going all the way up to 18:1 compression motors? I'm not trying to be a smart ass... But I do have lots of experience as he was asking and I gave him advice from what I have learned from even way back with building 6R7 motors (650 yamies).
