carburator - rebuild or replace?

Post by Mike »

Hi guys,
I'm having a few minor problems with my engine. I rebuilt it a while ago and it mostly runs pretty well, but idles rough and occasionally sputters when going up hills. I know I have more problems than just the carb, but I'm curious:
Has anyone ever replaced the carb on their 600 engine with a carb that is a little more common and easier to rebuild? I don't know much about motocycles, but it looks like any typical medium sized Honda motorcycle carb ought to work for this engine, or no?
Just pondering my options,
Thanks,
-Mike.

Stay with what it came with, ti's a easy to fix carb.  Unless you do tons of research to find something close, and then get custom machine work to adapt it to fit, stick with stock.
