Fcr 39 Worth it??

[greco400]

is the Fcr39 worth it for my 400,? I heard it is has a stumble problem when you punch the throttle? I don't know much about the Fcr How hard is it to jet these? WHat would be the cheapest with the throttle cable thanks

good carbs... Pulls very strong, not bad to jet..

It made a big diffrence on my built 416 last winter, I love it, I got mine used for $340 think here on exriders, so that was a plus for me, then I sold my stocker, that gained me 75 back, so all and all, I think it was definetly worth it. About that stumble, mine used to do it, then I put one size smaller pilot and it fixed it :confused: ... I dunno, works great.-darren

i really didn't have any major complaints about it. it doesn't have a choke which may cause a problem in winter, but most can get theirs started without one. there is a little miss if you nail the gas at low rpms really quick. it isn't that bad though. i wouldn't let that stop you from getting one.

If you don't go the fcr carbs check out the edelbrock quicksilver. I love mine. No starting problems, no stumble, Mine works great.

For those of you that have a thumb throttle, how bad compared to stock is it?My friend has a Edelbrock and its horrible.I couldnt imagine riding a whole race with one.I think my fingerwould fall off

[400-416EX]

Mine is not that bad at all. My thumb never hurts after a race.

I agree with the thumb falling off with the edelbrock carb, the fcr does have a lighter pull.

the fcr i had seemed lighter than stock. the throw was much shorter than stock too which was really nice.
