Our take on the 24mm Flatslide Mikuni Carburetor Kit

This is a 24mm Mikuni-style flatslide carburetor kit for 6.5 hp Honda clones and Predator engines, the kind used in go-karts, mini bikes and small generators. A flatslide body flows better than the stock round-slide carb at high rpm, so it is a common hop-up for mildly built engines. The kit includes a connector hose, hose clamps and two M6-1.00 x 20mm Allen bolts, and it expects a Mikuni throttle cable. It is a tuning part, not a bolt-on: expect to change jets and possibly the intake to match your engine.

Pros
  • Flatslide design gives sharper throttle response and better top-end flow than a stock round-slide
  • 24mm size suits mildly modified 6.5 hp engines without drowning them
  • Includes connector hose, clamps and mounting bolts
  • Standard Mikuni jetting and cable parts are widely available
  • Simple mechanical design with no electronics to fail
Cons
  • Not a direct bolt-on: intake manifold and air filter usually need adapting
  • Jetting changes are almost always required for your altitude and setup
  • Needs a Mikuni-style throttle cable, sold separately
  • No choke or fuel shutoff details are specified, so check before buying
  • Cheap clones vary in casting quality and jetting out of the box

Questions and answers

Will it fit a stock Predator 212?
It fits the engine family, but the stock intake and air box usually will not line up. Most buyers add an adapter manifold and a clamp-on filter, then rejet.
Do I need to change jets?
Yes, plan on it. Out-of-the-box jetting rarely matches a modified engine, altitude or exhaust, so buy a small jet kit and tune from there.
What throttle cable does it use?
It takes a Mikuni-style cable with the correct slide-end fitting. The stock cable on most clones will not work without an adapter.
Is a 24mm carb too big for a stock 6.5 hp engine?
For a completely stock engine it is on the large side and can hurt low-end response. It works best with a cam, exhaust or head work that raises airflow.
What is in the box?
The carburetor, a connector hose, hose clamps and two M6-1.00 x 20mm Allen bolts. Cable, intake manifold and air filter are not included.
When is it cheapest?
Small-engine carb kits tend to dip during off-season winter months and around spring karting sales. Compare across stores rather than buying at the first listing.
