Which carb to get?
I have a 99 Dyna with the TC-88. The work was done before I bought it and it has the following as far as I can tell\was told.
It has the 95" big bore, some type of cams in it (lopes alot) maybe headwork and a set of the original Big guns.
Should i go with a 42, 45 or 48 mikuni?

Agree. Unless you are trying to squeeze the last horse or so the stocker will work fine. The 42 could give you alittle more but not cost effecient unless getting serious. Unless planing to do more upgrades (103, radical cams, high mod heads,ect.) Would not go 45.

^^^ I think these guys are on the right track.
You really need to find out whats in the motor before guessing at what you think it needs.
I have a 42 Mikuni and I love it, I have a Dyna too, BTW. I have a 10 to 1 BB with HQ cams.
I think that If I got to 11 to1 and bigger cams a 45 Mikuni would be the way to go.
but the low end torque is what I like best about the bike right now!

RE: Which carb to get?
Thanks.
Bought it used, so until I have to tear into the motor I dont really know whats in it. A friend has a similarly modded dyna (more) and my bike keeps up fairly well. He has flowed heads, set of cams and the 95 inch jugs
Im very mechanically inclined, just new to Harley's so dont be afraid to get in depth on what I can do. I have a 400hp V6 grocery getter with a novi 1000
Im pretty sure whover did the work re-jetted the bike so I guess Ill stick with the CV for now. Any mods for it?

Use the Jet Kit from HQ www.head-quarters.com It's only about $40.00 and it work's pretty darn good.

RE: Which carb to get?
Look in the DIY sections on here for anything you need to know about redoing a CV carb. If you are determined to go after market, why not buy american (S&S)instead of replacing a jap carb with another jap carb? Support your own country first man.
