Product Description
KOSO KSR 28mm PERFORMANCE CARBURETOR
Semi-Flat D-Shaped Slide • 4-Stroke Performance Carb • DA928300
Upgrade your fuel system with the KOSO KSR 28mm Performance Carburetor, designed for riders and builders looking for improved throttle response, increased fuel-flow capability, and more precise tuning than a basic stock-style carburetor.
The KSR features KOSO's semi-flat D-shaped throttle slide, which is designed to increase fuel flow for better throttle reaction. This design also helps reduce incomplete combustion and improve combustion efficiency when the carburetor is properly tuned.
The 28mm KSR is an excellent choice for many performance 4-stroke scooter, GY6, ATV, go-kart, and buggy applications, particularly engines that have been modified with big-bore kits, performance heads, cams, intake systems, or exhaust upgrades.

WHY CHOOSE THE KOSO KSR?
The KSR isn't simply another stock replacement carburetor.
KOSO designed the KSR around a semi-flat D-shaped throttle slide that changes the way air and fuel are delivered as the throttle is opened.
When properly installed and tuned, the KSR design can provide:
-
Faster throttle response
-
Improved throttle reaction
-
Increased fuel-flow capability
-
Better air/fuel control
-
Improved combustion efficiency
-
Better support for modified engines
-
Precise tuning through jets and needle adjustment
-
Improved performance potential compared with restrictive stock carburetor setups
SEMI-FLAT D-SHAPED SLIDE
One of the most important features of the KOSO KSR is its specially designed semi-flat D-shaped throttle slide.
The design is intended to increase fuel flow and provide quicker throttle reaction compared with conventional carburetor designs.
For performance applications, this means the carburetor can react quickly to throttle input while supplying the additional air/fuel mixture demanded by a modified engine.
This makes the KSR particularly useful on engines equipped with:
-
Big-bore cylinder kits
-
Performance cylinder heads
-
Big-valve heads
-
Performance camshafts
-
Ported cylinder heads
-
Performance intake manifolds
-
High-flow air filters
-
Performance exhaust systems
GREAT CHOICE FOR PERFORMANCE GY6 BUILDS
The 28mm KSR can be an excellent carburetor choice for many GY6 performance combinations.
Common applications can include:
GY6 125cc / 150cc
Useful where a larger performance carburetor is appropriate, particularly when combined with intake, cylinder-head, camshaft, or exhaust modifications.
155cc PERFORMANCE BUILDS
A good option for engines where increased displacement and performance modifications require additional airflow.
171cc BIG BORE BUILDS
The 28mm size is well suited to many 171cc performance combinations using upgraded heads, cams, intake systems, and exhausts.
180cc PERFORMANCE BUILDS
Can also be used on larger GY6 builds depending on cylinder-head flow, camshaft, intake, exhaust, compression, and desired engine characteristics.
COMMON VEHICLE TYPES
Depending on the engine and intake configuration, the KSR 28mm can be used with many:
-
GY6 Scooters
-
Chinese Scooters
-
Performance Scooters
-
ATVs
-
Go-Karts
-
Buggies
-
Custom 4-Stroke Builds
FITMENT IS NOT DETERMINED BY ENGINE SIZE ALONE. PLEASE VERIFY YOUR CONNECTION SIZES BEFORE ORDERING.
IMPORTANT – 28mm DOES NOT MEAN 28mm CONNECTION SIZE
The advertised 28mm measurement refers to the nominal carburetor bore size.
It does NOT mean that the outside of the carburetor measures 28mm.
AIR FILTER CONNECTION:
50mm Outside Diameter
INTAKE MANIFOLD CONNECTION:
35mm Outside Diameter
Please measure your existing components before ordering.
This is especially important when using aftermarket intake manifolds and air filters.

CARBURETOR TUNING MAY BE REQUIRED
Performance carburetors are designed to be tuned to the specific engine.
The factory jetting is a starting point and is not guaranteed to be the correct final jetting for your application.
Required jetting can change significantly depending on:
-
Engine displacement
-
Cylinder bore
-
Compression ratio
-
Cylinder head
-
Valve size
-
Camshaft
-
Intake manifold
-
Air filter
-
Exhaust system
-
Elevation
-
Temperature
-
Other engine modifications
Proper air/fuel tuning is important for both performance and engine reliability.
KOSO KSR VS. STOCK CV-STYLE CARBURETOR
A standard CV-style GY6 carburetor is primarily designed around smooth operation, fuel economy, and everyday drivability.
The KOSO KSR is designed with performance tuning in mind.
Its semi-flat D-shaped slide and adjustable fuel system allow a performance engine builder to tune the carburetor around the engine's airflow requirements.
For modified engines, this can provide:
Sharper throttle response
Better fuel delivery
Increased tuning capability
Better support for higher-flowing engine combinations
Improved performance potential
IDEAL FOR BIG-BORE & PERFORMANCE ENGINES
Installing a larger cylinder, performance cylinder head, camshaft, intake, or exhaust can increase the amount of air an engine is capable of moving.
At a certain point, the original carburetor can become a restriction.
A properly sized and tuned 28mm performance carburetor can help provide the additional airflow and fuel delivery needed to take advantage of those engine modifications.
The KOSO KSR is an excellent choice for builders looking to move beyond a basic stock carburetor.
