Some are good others not so , I bought one for £13.99 fitted it with the Honda needle and top cap and it runs ok the jets are not marked in any way so I have no idea what they are.
You pays your money and .

Mine is the earlier bike with the larger intake not the small later one.

The ffox had problem after problem with his cub until we swopped his fake Keihin for a second hand genuine and then all was hunky dory.
As AE86 says, even the Vietnamese, many of whom haven't got a couple of dong to rub together, won't use the chinese carbs.
