Thats the only thing that concerns me, but the cast carb will have the valves built in. Even a PWK laying on the ground for 30 sec. or so will take a few kicks to get going. Any longer than that and chances are their are bigger problems.:eek:

That's the exact reason I didn't buy the billet one, I hope the check valves will eliminate this problem

What was the result? , the good thing is Corey is working hard to get this problem sorted out :D

It took four kicks to get it going again. I was at my house when I did this just to see what would happen. I have had more trouble starting kids bikes that tip over when working a check point.

Anyone with an auto clutch and Smart Carb combo?
My Rekluse equipped bike usually stays running until I can get it picked up. I wonder if the Smart Carb will run on its side as readily as an ASII.

Also, on the restart attempt after tip-over, are you starting per normal or going straight to a WOT flooded technique?

GMP 01-15-2013 12:47 PM

Thats a very good question. I would think though with a flooded motor at kickstart speed it would not matter what carb is on it, as long as the throttle is wide open.

One thing i forgot to mention before was the duel map mode , before i put the carb on there was only a small change from one setting to the other .
When i was out trail riding after fitting the carb i thought id change to the rain mode , there was night and day difference to the point i quickly switched back .
I have the recluse on my bike and found if you fell off and got to the bike quick you could keep it running , if not its several kicks to get started again .

Yes i have the SC and rekluse and have had the bike keep running on it's side for a few seconds but if it dies it's been a bit difficult to start but i think Corey isn't very far away from having this issue resolved for the billets and the cast will be taken care of right from the start.I found it was much easier to hold the throttle wide open till it started.

Good info to know Dave. I too have the SC and EXP on my Husky but knock on wood I haven't laid it over while running.

That would be sweet, but even better yet is to be able to adjust it once and leave it a lone forrrrrevvvverrrrr.
