when these Hondas are set up right, the tappets set correctly and a pumper carb just looking at the kickstart will start them, if you are having trouble with yours it is the tappet settings and or the carb badly adjusted or leaking air on the intake rubber which is common as they perish when stood up for a while and go dry, the pumper carb upgrade transforms the bike,

How much power does it add? I have been debating it for years now.

Not sure really, maybe 1 or 2HP, but it makes it so much easier to start and does make the throttling a lot better and more responsive.

Is it worth learning to tune the oem carb, or not bother?

You can do there is a page in the manual about needle sizes and altitude… worth a go first if unsuccessful then buy a pumper !

Hi. Can I just ask what jetting your bike is with the pumper carb? Think mine is 130 main and 15 pilot jet. Still messing around with the jetting to make it run better as not brilliant. Cheers.

@@Lairy67yeah checked them. Mine runs OK just doesn't seem to tick over quite as good as yours. When mines hot it runs fine pulls very strong and sweet. Just a little bit of a lumpy tickover when at operating temperature.

Think the pilot jet needs playing with and think the float height needs adjusting as it leaks fuel when lent over. Sorry for the long paragraphs by the way.
