I have a carb on my CT125 bucket that is smaller than the port. See diagram. I'm thinking either a spacer with tapered throat as shown - or should I get a bigger carb. The bike seems to starve for gas at the mo

I'd probably keep the carb
and get rid of the CT.

Would it fit without major mods?

OK - I think that I need to look at 25-29mm size to avoid the problem of too little vacuum. Thanks anyway. Anyone else with knowledge or suggestions?
