Slide cut away measurement

Postby Vintmoto » Sun Apr 12, 2015 2:17 am

Does anybody know how to measure slide cut a away for the 29d? I have a slide with no markings on it. Thanks in advance.

Welcome
Both my spare slides are stamped 80 and when sat on a flat surface measure approx. 8.0mm from surface to top of cutaway. The carb charts show I should be using a 60, but my 250 seems
to run cleanly with an 80, so I leave well alone. It is running a scrambler head with cleaned-up ports and unknown aftermarket cam, so that may explain the difference.

Thank you so much. With two data points correlating to the millimeter conversion, I am going to run with it.
