Description
This Mikuni TM38 Flatslide single carburetor conversion kit is for fitment to the 1990 thru 1995 XT600E models with the outward facing rubber boots for this unique air-box connection on each side rather than directly back. Please confirm that the frame and air-box shown in the picture library are the same as yours.
These kits are available in both the TM42 pumper high performance option or this the budget priced TM38 which still far out performs the OEM carb set. The TM40 pumper will not fit with this frame due to a lack of available space. This TM38 is an easy resolution to non repairable, worn out stock units. These have for decades been the economical replacement carb of choice for Honda XR600 and XR650 riders who have worn out their OEM carbs or are just over some of their inherent problems with some more power and torque a bonus. All this means getting the full enjoyment out of your motorcycle has never been so easy, say goodbye to hard starting, hesitations and flatspots. These Mikuni carburetors like the TM42 will adapt to your stock air-box when using our supplied, forked air-box adapter.
REQUIRED MODIFICATIONS TO ENABLE FITMENT- The cross plate located above and behind your carbs needs a 45mm wide by 10mm high section removed for overhead clearance. The cut out on the bottom of our alloy motor manifold for Belgarda motor fin clearance isn’t enough for this motor where you have the choice of removing more material from the manifold or from the motor fin as pictured in the PDF. On our Mikunioz YouTube channel there’s a video showing the easy process for fitting up the alloy manifold. You will need to shorten your air-box rubber boots for attachment to our manifold. Fuel line is not provided where you will be connecting to an 8mm fitting on the carb. All the time and effort required to make a far superior carb not made for your bike fit, is long forgotten when you experience the huge jump in rideability and performance.
The kit comes with a Mikuni TM38-86 carb, cast two into one manifold with mounting hardware, heavy duty rubber engine mounting flange to isolate the heat, a forked air-box adapter with a carb end hose clamp (requiring the shortening of your OEM rubbers for connection), a 1/4 turn quick action throttle and a nylon lined cable with a 90 degree lower fitting which screws directly into the carburetor top for clearance . There are jets provided that must be changed as well as spares for fine tuning.
The carb comes with a rarely ever required knob choke where if in colder climates you find you do need to use the choke and access to the knob is an issue, we sell separately either a cable choke adapter kit ( MK-412 ) or a complete kit with universal bracket and 310mm long cable ( MK-412-310C ).
Climate, altitude and fuel density from different octane fuels all have varying effects on final fine tuning as does cam, exhaust and cylinder head porting etc. For this reason, we have included what we have found to be a range of jets to allow you to tune to most variables worldwide.
You will instantly experience better throttle response, improved acceleration and performance. If chasing optimum performance check out our TM42 Pumper Carb options.
