Do you have any motor mods? I think you would at least need a cam and some port work or possible bore kit to really feel a difference with a bigger carb.

Do not expect a tremendous gain!!! If you had a 440 or a pro am kit it would be a totally diffirent bike, but stock bore?? The bike actually might get choked from the fuel??? I am unsure on that but that is what Iwould expect.

You'd be better off with a 39mm FCR. Throttle response should be significantly improved. Low to mid power noticeably better. I wouldn't think that the top end power will improve much if any without some more agressive internal mods. JMHO

The 41 will still be worth it. Even more so if/when you do some int. mods.

if you found a good deal on it, buy it. if you don't like it, you can sell it and make a profit.
