What carb?

[DAN]

As you can see my carb is Chernobyl and missing small parts that I cant find anywhere so I'm probably returning the carb rebuild and getting a performance one because my warrior has performance exhaust,K&N air filter and high compression piston.
I think I'm going to get a yfz 450 carb as I found a good price on Facebook marketplace if anyone has it on their quad please tell me if it gives a lot of power and how it fit on like will I need to make adjustments to the manifolds?
Also people are talking about edelbrock's but I cant seem to find one anywhere where can I see one?

I have the yfz450 carb and love it. It's harder to tune but when you get it dialed it's awesome. You'll need a manifold from DRW, yfz manifold to carb boot and do something about the airbox to carb boot.

Thanks
Just to double check this thing and a stock 450 manifold?

 

[beastlywarrior228]

Correct

That looks amazing
Is there an adapter that's cheaper?

 

[beastlywarrior228]

$45 is cheap. I probably have $600 in my setup. The adapters were $100.

 

[DAN]

Yeah I mean it is nice
any tips with that specific carb tuning?

Also don't get me wrong i'm not a cheap old fart trying to cheap out on everything i've got, im 16 and I don't have necessary got a ton of money to spend
The warrior is a great quad but I feel its a bit small like I've been on a 450 and 660 and they just seem more comfy
BUT the warrior is easy to work on and bulletproof reliable but they also sell very badly in CNY
Any tips for a more aggressive stance and a bit higher ? I would appreciate it

Highly recommend American star a arms.

For yfz 450 shocks do I need to make adjustments to fit them on front and back?
Would 450 a arms work?

No on arms and rear shock. Fronts will need shortened.

What setup do you use? and do you have pics?

What setup do you use? and do you have pics?

I've had lots of setups. American star arms with work, ohlins and elka, American star 400ex long travel with yfz450r shocks, fullflight with yfz450 shocks and now waiting on drw long travel arms.

 

[DAN]

I haven't heard about the drw arms but can you send pics of fullflight with yfz450 shocks
Have you done anything in the rear ?

Here's the gen 1 fullflight with yfz shocks. For the rear I have a lonestar swingarm. In the picture I have a banshee shock and raptor 350 linkage. Now I have the drw link and going to a built 660 shock.

Dude that looks amazing probably the cleanest I've ever seen , I might just fix my warrior up , sell it to get money and build something like that
and is that a radiator in the front !?
Great job man and I love the sticker

Oil cooler I added on. You can check out my build thread and elite thread to see where this quad has been in the past. I got it brand new in 2001.
