Usually a rather basic 38-40mm Mikuni or Keihin. The Mikuni HSR42 is the draw through carb of choice. Getting the others to run right is a "challenge".

Are those the ones usually used on HD. Have anyone ever heard of Zenith carbs. I was told they are really good to use because of th simple high and low needles(no jets).

I dont understand how a single 42mm carb replaces 4 26 or 29mm(whatever size a KZ1k has) in a turbo application. And how well would a Lectron work in a turbo system.

Draw through vs blow through.With a presserized
system, venturi velocity is not controlled by
engine draw vs venturi diameter but by turbine
size and speed.I am sure Turbocharger designers
have spent many an hour with their dynos etc. to
work out the calculations.
