Im a newb like ive said before. My carb has pretty much had it. So I was looking at carbs. The stock carb is a keihn pb18. So the 18 is 18mm right? I found a carb that was 22mm I think. So would it my bike? Its all stock. in other words whats the biggest carb you can use on a stock bike?

I know quite a few people run a 26mm carb so it breathes really good. All you have to do is jet it and then you're good to go. Also you don't have to buy a bigger carb if at some point later down the road you decide you want to mod the motor.

Plus you see 26mm carbs popping up for sale left and right in the classifieds ;)

Well the float and float valve are shot. The rubber tip is stuck up in the carb. Was going to try and find rebuild kit but I have only found 1 and it doesnt come with a float. I found a 22mm and 26 mm carb on ebay cheaper then then the rebuild kit. Some of the carbs are.”off brand” im guessing cause it doesnt say what brand. I was just wondering if a bigger carb would fit on a stock intake. The whole bike is stock.
