Well i am having problems with the carb on this 250ES. i just got it and it has been sitting up for about two years and i pulled the carb apart and it looks like someone dumped syrup in there. took the whole thing apart and cleaned everything but still not working right, i am going to buy a rebuild kit for it and try that as well as let the carb soak in some B12 Chemtool for about 2 days.
is there available swaps to say a bigger carb? can you do that like you can on cars/trucks? im new and this is the first one i have worked on myself but i am pretty good mechanically. i got it for 250$ so i know i can still throw a bit of money at it and it still be a good trike.
what ya think? what can i swap on it? where is a good place to get a manual on it at a good price?

oh hey. another question. what about swapping the front drum brakes for disk brakes? got any tips? can it be done, maybe just swap new forks on it? maybe some web links to this kinda stuff would be cool.
Thanks, Howard:shrug:
