just got a yamaha breeze, looking to put a bigger carb & deliever more air/fuel, m question to you is would a stock liquid R carb work, or would it just flood it? if not, would a blaster carb work?

Everything I've read says not to mix 4 stroke and 2 stroke carbs. Look for one off of a 200x, or 300ex/250x, or even the new 250ex.

well what youve read must contradict what ive done, because ive put stock R carbs on 250x's & 300ex's & after jetting them, they worked great. (im not trying to be a jerk, its just ive heard others say that it doesnt work that way and yada yada yada, then shown em my old x & my friend's ex & they were shocked lol). by the way, how is that yfz450 working out? ive suggested that a couple of my friends that are looking for new quads persue them instead of honda 450rs because ive heard a lot of better things about the motors on the yamaha from a couple of racer friends, relatives, & a local mechanic or 2, but ive never ridden one (rode my buddies 450r and it was FaSt, but -supposedly- the yamaha model is about the same speed-wise).

Usually seems that is the way it goes. You read something, and another person reads the exact opposite I guess you can only really know by doing it.

I love my YFZ. After having a 400ex for a couple years I was afraid of the extra power. I got used to it quick. The best way I've heard it described is that it's like holding a cat's tail and dragging a wire brush across it's butt. The YFZ is faster no doubt about it. With a couple mods the YFZ's can fit anyone's riding style.

Don't know and don't care about HP numbers. It's all about how you like the quad/trike or don't like it.
