Mikuni HSR48 Easy Kit - Press Release
H?ere’s a REAL Racing Carburetor for American Big Twin Monster Motors! Mikuni's HSR48 Flat Slide. This smoothbore carburetor offers the highest air flow possible while providing highly accurate fuel metering, more power, and Mikuni’s renowned precision throttle response. A new extended main jet and larger fuel valve assure ample fuel
supply for very powerful engines.

The HSR48 offers all the same features as the popular Mikuni HSR42 & HSR45 Carburetors for Harley Davidson Twins. All HSR carburetors are designed with an 8-roller bearing flat throttle slide assembly that allows an unobstructed venturi at full throttle to flow more air, while it carburetes more precisely at all throttle settings. Mikuni’s roller bearing throttle slide offers smoother throttle control and allows the use of a lighter throttle return spring for reduced throttle effort. And the Mikuni adjustable accelerator pump provides instant throttle response in any riding or performance application. While a high capacity float bowl prevents fuel starvation even under full throttle applications.

The new HSR48 comes complete with rubber mounting flange, choke cable, remote idle adjuster and additional jetting. Contact your local dealer to order and visit www.Mikuni.com for more information.
