How does this carb compare to the factory Keihin carb? Are these durable?

I purchased one of these for a 2001 XR80 and it was plug and play. I have had it for almost a year with no issues. Too early to tell if it will last, but so far my bike runs like new.

The carb I received actually says Keihin on it. That being said, it was slightly smaller than the factory carb that came on my XR80R. I will second the mounting bolts, it is slightly different. All things considered, I would buy it again given the chance, it works great and was easy to overcome the slight differences. Also, the bike runs great!

The only difference I encountered was that I needed slightly different mounting bolts. I believe the original carb had square slots for the bolt head and this one doesn't. No biggie, just pulled some small bolts from the old bolt bucket and it bolted on with no problem. The new carb worked perfectly right out of the box, never put a screwdriver on it, and it works perfectly today.

It is a Keihin. And the mounting holes are threaded so you don't need the square nuts from the original. I am finding that it is a bit "cold-blooded" as-is, needs a minute to get warmed up, but otherwise works well.

Lisa sorry but i dont know all i can tell you really is that it has been a dependable motor and yes it does have a key and i think i posted the shaft size in my review a while back. I can count on having to put oil in it about every 30 hours of running and always starting when i need it. But ive changed it over to propane so i dont have issues with the normal carb problems that develop with gas.

No. What size Kazuma? 50cc. I tried to attach a link for the carb I think you need, but it won't let me. My email is mikehanaway@yahoo.com

Yes that should be the same carb. I also have a Tecumesh 10HP engine. That carb has been fantastic.

The carbs will work but they do need to be jetted. They are jetted far too lean even for a stock motor. Some carbs also have bad threads from the factory so you should disassemble and inspect before you install

I'm not sure either but if I were take a guess it would be the Japanese equals Quality, Reliability, Performance, LongLasting. Know that was true for autos; few years back and I have spent the extra buck for my cars. Don't know much about Power tools but like the previous poster I'm very pleased with the power and performance.

Yea real motorcraft. I have had them in my 350 for almost a year in commercial use so I'd say the quality is on par.

Durability is 9/10. It will take a lot of abuse within reason. Part availability is good, any hobby shop or Amazon will generally have what you need or can get it.It's a good idea to remember that the longevity and durability of an RC vehicle is directly related to how much time you put in to maintaining it, cleaning it, changing bearings etc.

Seems a little fast to me. Mine lasted a good 4 years and that was with a fair amount of abuse going sideways on a slope. The replacements are cheap though and seem to be as good as original. Maybe not the best wheels especially in terms of traction,but easy and cheap to replace.

I used this kit on my 2000 and didn't encounter any issues. I thought it seemed generic to Mikuni carbs.

Love my mcx2 its not twichy at all but I built it from parts and it is brushless and a real hot rod. Higher head speed = way more stable.

Based on the NGK website which I checked before buying says the Laser series plugs are made to OEM/OES specifications, so durability and lifespan should be that of the manufacturers.

I entered the model number (the same HSK70) into the amazon search. That carb came up. It is a direct bolt on replacement. Mine works great after I adjusted the needle for altitude. I would recommend this over the rebuild kit.

Hi sir, the best thing is to pull the carb and get the # off of it and make sure. So many different carbs for them, some have as many as 6 different ones. Not all the same either.

They seem to be pretty durable. I did a whole car with no sign of wear. After, I machine washed them and let them air dry.

Yes, They say you have to replace the carb about every 2-3 years. I replaced mine and it runs like a top ! No adjusting needed, bolt on and till your heart out !
