[Gezzer]

Hi my names Steve,avid reader new poster! I'm on an engine rebuild at the moment for my ypvs hybrid and i've just come accross these on ebay italy

cgi.ebay.it/CARBURATORE-POLINI-PWK-28-MOTORI-2T-4T-UNIVERSALE-/360347385336?pt=Ricambi_e_Accessori_Scooter&hash=item53e660bdf8#ht_3184wt_922

Does anybody have any experience with polini's? I have a set of genuine second hand Keihin's but maybe brand new polini's would be better and the price is very good!

Hello,

I have never heard of them, I know of some people who have tried other carb copies and they have had a hard time sorting them out.

If you can get the jets and needles etc, it could be interesting to try.

just done a search and they seem popular with the scooter boys

Hello,

I put PWK's on my f2 and it worked out quite expensive, by the time I bought the carbs , different needles, jets etc - it all adds up .

could be the same for this though

Seems a lot of these copies out there now with OKO and others in on the act. These could be branded copies, or even a whole new design. its hard to tell.

Defo agree PWK isnt a cheap route to nirvana, but its said to be the way forward for many people so is worth a look if you dont like your standard setup.
