I had hoped the EX-500 carb conversion in
http://www.xs650.com/forum/showthread.php?t=13070 would work on my TX750. Unfortunately the center to center spacing for the carbs is 125mm instead of the 120mm on the 650 and the ganged EX-500 carbs won't fit. Are there any suggestions on a better carb to use instead of the BS-38 that would use the same holder (48mm opening)? While the bike is running OK at the moment, the carbs have been problematic, and the current fuel economy seems low at 32 mpg with rather sedate riding.
