yeah, I have dealt with them in the past but the space needed to get the carb all the way into the intake is way too much-I do have a alumn BOX that I picked up off Ebay from CDR? performance but what intake do you use for it? The stock is not going to work on that box-

With all the oem intake components & airbox mounted there's a 1" gap? Got pics?

Yeah I got it on the carb without using a spacer but then you can't get it into the rubber grommet because it is too far in, hence the question about the spacer.
I was also looking to see what was being used with the aftermarket alumn box in regards from the carb to box inlet. Is it from a 3 wheeler?

Yes I will take a pic and post. Again the ride is in my unheated garage so the rubber is not flexible at all but the gap seems way too much.

3 wheeler air box is totally different stock vs stock. I would think the same when aftermarket

Pic. This is without the rubber grommet installed for the air box in the frame.

The reed spacer will take care of that.

Thanks for the help

If you are wanting a rad valve. I have one that doesn't have the reeds. I would give ya a deal

mudbogger · « **Reply #25 on:** April 11, 2016, 06:31:18 AM »

Thanks I have a valve already ready for install. My problem with that is the stock carb is way to small for it, hence the question about aftermarket carbs.

I think they made different size boots. Trx has a smaller carb stock than cr250. Mine was marked for the smaller carb. I can take pic for you

If I remember the cr250 rad valve was designed for a 38mm carb whereas the trx250r rad valve was made for the 35mm carb. You probably have the cr version. I have a rad valve for the trx (i think it had a 04 stamped on the side) and it fits perfect.

I have the CR & TRX rad valves & the valve inlets & boots were all the same & fit the bigger carbs. Boyesen might make a boot to work with the stock 34mm carb but I think 36mm is where the larger Keihin throats start & those are the standard boots on rad valves. If Boyesen doesn't make an adapter for the rad valve to stock carb you could make your own pretty easy.

Thanks for the help, I spoke to a Boyesen rep and they indeed do make a valve for the 34mm stock carb, which is what I will order. I have the rad valve here and the spacer did indeed take all the space out.
