I don't have the Mikuni but I have an Amal Mk2 which appears to be very similar. For me, the main change is that it's a heck of a lot more responsive. There's no lag while you wait for the diaphragm to pull the needle. This comes at the price of fuel economy but adds simplicity. I'm sure Lancer can give you a more complete answer but that's my short version. I love my roundslide carb.

What performance improvements can be expected with this kit, including the UFO?

The round slide is noticeably more responsive and will flow more fuel/air ... as much as you would ever want for this engine. Potential for power increases is substantial. How much power depends on what you do to other parts, but this carb is more than capable of handling anything you may ever desire to do.
The UFO enhances the efficiency of the low and mid range circuits. That is why a smaller pilot jet is needed with the UFO. It's shape smooths the inside shape of the carb bore which enables the incoming air to move straighter and faster, which picks up the fuel needed more effectively and efficiently. Dyno tests show up to a 1 hp increase for each 100cc of engine displacement. On our 650 this equates to an additional 5-6 hp in the low to mid range...that is a very big bump in almost instantaneous available power. The responsiveness is remarkable. IT JUMPS.
It certainly does take more fuel to make more power but if tuned well the fuel needed to make the power needed to cruise down the road is still the same, so milage can be close to a stock carb setup.

Posts: 244 The Hammer, Canada Gender:	Re: Performance Carburetor Kit Reply #6 - 06/12/12 at 15:15:52 I can vouch for the HP bump; I just put this on, and while it took me a bit to get tuned up, the difference is noticable. Just for kicks, I took a new S40 for a "test ride" at the local stealer... ahem, "dealer", then rode mine home. Definitely a noticable difference.

It is not an aerobatic carb. Seems like the aircraft carbs I saw ( and its been quite a few years ) had butterfly valves, not slide valves. In an inverted position, purposeful or not, the slide may possibly fail and the float system would be inoperative and result in fuel starvation.
So, probably not a good idea on this one..........but a very interesting question !! Wink

I do love flying.

Thanks.

I typically use the smallest K&N cone I can get with a 62-64mm flange ID.
Go to the "Universal Air Filter" section on www.knpowersports.com site.
The SN-2570 is a decent one, but choose based on your needs...like is your air box still in the frame or out ? Distance from carb to air box is only about 5" max or slightly less. The space is tight.
You can go a cheaper route with an Emgo stainless mesh filter that is even smaller but does not filter quite as well. They were only about $10 last time I got one from from www.speedmoto.com or they can be found on ebay for $15-20.
Thunder Products has foam filters used on racing dirt bikes for not much as well. Lonn is the owner is a good dude. www.thunderproducts.com.

Wow, that is quite a mark up on the actual cost.
Speed Moto has an bay store with this same 60mm filter for $10.
Or go to www.speedmotoco.com and check out their website.
They have some cool stuff that we can use on the Savage/s40.
