Interesting it's from Yamaha oem? Wonder if it's worth the $300 plus to try

shorter body due to flat slide instead of round slide.

That looks like a thin version of the D-slide PWK 38AS.

Looks all new. Similar to the new yz carb but without the yamaha throttle position sensor crap. I looked real quick yesterday on yamahas site and noticed it said something about the yz250 carb and sensor but I didn't read up on it.

would be nice for aftermarket cylinders where you lose a bit of space.

Says better response. Sounds like a perk for woods, mx, or just everything where the 38 size fills the need. Time will tell. I like seeing new stuff, we don't get to see new things very often. We know how solid keihin always are and it probably uses the common jets etc parts gathered up over the years. A lot anyway. It has the same cable in the option to add so that is the same.

I think I'm going to have to give this carb a try. I bet it'll work great on a oem dune ported cylinder.

I'd like to know if it still uses the same jets / needles that our PJ and PWK's take.   It also would be awesome if they made the float valve needle seat replacable like some of the Mikuni's have.  Either way, it's good to see another 2 stroke carb option out there.

Eddie updated the description on this carb and lowered the price of it. Sounds like it'll be ideal for my oem cylinder.

I seen it but didn't read much. Is that the same one that had the welded exhaust?

Yup. That guy is local to me. He was the guy we had porting our engines when we first started racing 20 years ago. I think he might be onto something.....
