Mikuni HSR48 Performance Carburetor For Big American V-Twins

Published by Cyril Huze January 4th, 2011 in Builders, Customs, Editorial and Engines.

Factory or custom built, "High Tech Wonder Bikes" have increased displacement requiring the highest air flow possible, highly accurate fuel metering, and precision throttle response.
Following the popular HSR42 & HSR45 carburetors for stock and mildly modified Harley-Davidson and other V-Twins, Mikuni is now offering the HSR48 Flat Side Carburetor, a must have for highly tuned big American Big Twin motors.
This smooth-bore carburetor offers the highest air flow, a new extended main jet and larger fuel valve to assure ample fuel supply. It has` all the same features and big performance gains as all other HSR carburetors and is designed with an 8-roller bearing flat throttle slide assembly that allows an unobstructed venturi at full throttle to flow more air, while it mixes fuel more precisely at all throttle settings. Mikuni's roller bearing throttle slide offers smoother throttle control and allows the use of a lighter throttle return spring for reduced throttle effort. The Mikuni adjustable accelerator pump provides instant throttle response in any riding or performance application. A high capacity float bowl prevents fuel starvation even under full throttle . The new HSR48 comes complete with rubber mounting flange, choke cable, remote idle adjuster and additional jetting. For more information, contact your local dealer or visi Mikuni Power.

Pinewood Derby Fun with the kids.

Coming up in about 2 weeks is the Pack 67 pinewood derby. It's always a great event with Dad's Belgian Waffle breakfast and then the Pinewood Derby at noon. This year, they invited the Boy Scouts to join in on the fun and asked the leaders and scouts to make their own OPEN CLASS entries. This means that it doesn't have to meet reguations for size, weight etc. So, mine may not win for speed, but it should certainly turn some heads with Best of Show hopefully.

This is a complete concept design that just seemed to jump off the block of wood. I staired at the block for about half an hour before this came to mind. The copper wires were added later when I decided on what color to stain it. Just happened to have some electrical wire hanging around and started drilling holes where it should go, the top 2 bands were the last of the thoughts. Screws were added as accent pieces also. Just like a custom chopper, they look awesome, but aren't usually very functional. Hopefully, this one will net me a Best of Show ribbon or something... The kids are both doing their cars too, Cain is a Tiger cub and his car is somewhat resembling a Light Cycle from TRON and Tyler opted for the School Bus approach. He also has a Tank in mind for another option. He can't decide. Either way, this has been a ton of fun, and I may consider taking this up as a hobby, or some sort of woodworking art.

Inlaying is my next adventure. Maybe even inlaying some sort of fiber optics into the car...

If you get a chance, attend a pinewood derby in your area... See what the kids are coming up with. And see how much fun it is to spend time with your child to create something. They will remember this time forever.
