I put on of these on my 2003 Electra glide. Works amazing. I couldn't believe that a carb this good could cost so little. It's one of those rare occasions in life I guess.

I've been using these for my Shovelhead rebuilds for years, never had any problems, and they're dirt cheap!

I installed one of these carbs on a 1996. 1340 evo. Absolutely fantastic - starts good - excellent mileage. Absolutely fantastic throttle response.

I ordered one and it worked great. Cold starts are easy and starts right up. thank you.

I put one on my 2000 sportster sport 2 years ago, all good. Just swapped an S&S super E off my 97 Dyna for one of these and so far so good.

Nice job. Excellent work 👍. My cv carb always had the Harley cough. Great research!!

[jesusadames]

I pulled the trigger on the Amazon cv carb...installed and super happy with it so far. Thanks for your video. Ride safe

I'm going on 2.5 years strong with my $50 cv carb for my 01 Dyna. Immediatley replaced all the gaskets/components with a james kit (the ones it came with were junk). Also swapped the jets from the old carb. Thing as been absolutley flawless. My bike never ran right with the stock CV. Rebuilt it twice and replaced many parts and could never fully get rid of the cough, plus it was sluggish off the line. Also would have to run the choke for at least the first 10 mins of riding, now its literally 30 seconds to a minute. The amazon carb took all of 5 mins to tune and has been perfect ever since. I did replace the philips screws with allen screws. Been thinking of trying a knock off Mikuni from amazon. These CV's are such old tech, even the cheapos are good. $399 for a new one is robbery. 7k miles on the carb now btw.

I have 1993 electra glide twin cam 88 and I bought the 65 dollar carb and it wouldn't run, I'm glad you had a better experience then i did

These carbs are awesome. These screws even on the clones are likely to be JIS rather than a Phillips. If you use Philips you are more likely to strip JIS screws. Very similar look however they are not the same. Some cheap JIS drivers will fix any stripping problem

I have one of those on a new to me Dyna and it works great so far. One note though, those bowl screws are very likely NOT Phillips but JIS (Japanese Industrial Standard) and won't strip if you use the correct JIS driver....that would be the case on the stock Kehin carb for sure. I didn't know the difference myself for years and stripped plenty of JIS screws. In a pinch you can grind the tip of a Phillips driver shorter and it will fit JIS screws better and be far less likely to strip them.

Impressive how it started right up, cold and then went right into a slow idle like that. Mine would never do that.

I put a knockoff S&S Super E on my shovel for $80 au, it had the same flat spot as the old S&S so I drilled and fitted an air bleed jet as the newer carbs and it works a treat. Usually first kick, ok carb for China. If it wasn't for the price I wouldn't even look at it, but it does work as it should and is very affordable when you are on a budget.

My plugs are so old, they still say Harley Davidson on them. Love how you just chunked them in the trash. That was awesome.

[johnmotoguy]

Can you give me the amazon link for that carburetor? The one you posted to someone else doesn't work anymore. Thank you for the video it helps out a lot.

After fighting with my Factory CV carburetor with a worn slide and trying to get it to run right I too decided to get an Amazon carb. The quality of the material and machining are excellent. Stock Harley or CV Performance jets will not work. I swapped over my CV Performance emulsion tube and jets and needle. Amazon carburetor works great.

Just new on your channel! Enjoy the videos no bs much appreciated!!

[jpotenzcycle]

I bought headbolts for my Sportster at the Harley Davidson official dealer and Received 4 Chinese head bolts!!? I asked about and dealer part's guy said that is how it is. Plastic parts for bike most are not American either!! That's why I bought a Harley Davidson, i thought everything was made in America. I am really disappointed. So now I buy the best deal that works.

Here's a tip for carbs with those air cleaners, STOP OILING THEM! . cheers

[scottmalone]

I love my Amazon cv carb. I have a cup a/f screw on mine. I also run 48/180, she likes it fat. I tried a 46 from cvp and it still coughed. Overall these carbs seem awesome.
