Flatslide or Roundslide Carbs?

[WyldOne]

Hey all,

Got a flatslide and roundslide carb sitting here. Which one should I bolt onto my 140cc engine?

its mainly personal preference bewteen flat slide and round. Obviously flat slide is a lot more snappy.

No mention of WHICH carbs you have, how you ride it. I personally find the flat slides tougher to tune in the transition from pilot to needle, corner exits. The wider slide of a roundy gives stronger signal to the emulsion tube. Flats were 2-stroke carbs, and can work on a 4-stroke, but aren't worth the effort and expense most of the time. Others feel differently.
