January 31, 201115 yr Hello,I have a montesa 348,the carb on it is a 28mm JIKOV which is from cech republic,does anybody know wether they are any good,I know it should have an amal, but they seem to get a slating and if I replace it I might go mikuni. Just wondered if anybody knows much about the JIKOV carb,Jawa use them which makes me think it would be ok,any info would be appreciated Cheers John
January 31, 201115 yr Oh dear! They're not blessed with the best reputation. I'd try a VMX CZ/Jawa forum for advice.
February 1, 201115 yr The 28mm is a lot different to the 33mm ones that get talked about on vmx forums, never had any real issues using a 26mm on my CZ trials bike that I started on but the 33mm originally fitted to my 73 380 vmx bike is a completely different story- prone to flooding & really hard to set up & now sitting on a shelf The 28mm carb you've got should be ok but parts would be harder to find than a mikuni etc
