39mm PWK vs. 40mm Lectron
«

Opinions? I know that 44 is considered "optimal" for a KX5, but this is going in a quad, and I have an opportunity to buy a decent, clean, power-jet-equipped Lectron at a reasonable price. Or should I stick to my original game plan and get a 39mm PWK Airstryker?
Opinions? Set-up suggestions? Thoughts?
Thanks!

your choice is the standard 39.5mm pwk, or the Airstriker pwk only avail in 38mm ,or your 40mm, Not sure what what your riding needs are[low down power or top end] The 39.5mm PWK is not a airstriker but you can get it quad vent ofen fitted to alot of ktm

Dave, thanks for the input--and you are correct, I am looking at a quad-vented 39 PWK, without the Airstryker "vanes." I bought a "stock" 39 PWK, but also have an opportunity to buy a 40mm Lectron with a powerjet. Just looking for guidance.

sorry mate cant give u much advice on the lectron [what controls the powerjet??]
on the 39.5mm pwk quadvent dont really know the advantage as the extra vents just tee into the original two.
buying a second hand quadvent you may stand a better chance of gettining a carb in better condition due it being a newer design

RB-Designs is overboring the PWK airstrykers.
