Carb Gasket Sets; Pattern vs Genuine

(1/1)

Yuppie_88 (Luke):
Hi all,

I'm in the process of stripping the carbs on my K4. Does anyone have experience with the David Silver pattern parts carb set? Are they any good? Or should I consider spending the extra £60 difference for the genuine sets.

Thank you

If genuine is available and you can afford it go that route. Some of the cheaper carb kits tend to be of varying quality. I've been lucky a few times with the kits but genuine is virtually guaranteed good.

The gaskets are fine. Avoid aftermarket Keyster brass. They didn't match the original Keihin and my bike ran rich. I cleaned up the Keihin originals and am now fine.

Thank you, I bit the bullet and went for the genuine set. £100 worth of rubber!  :'(
