Hi All

I'm just about to upgrade my bike and pop in a XB12 Engine. I'm wondering what type of carb should I be looking for? I'm currently using a standard sportster carb jetted for a 1200 in my XB9 setup. It works but I feel its lacking power. I'm after something with a wee bit more power but won't cost the earth...

Thanks

Paul
