Good stuff, any idea what gas mileage you're getting?
I've just put about 300miles on bumblebee's stage2 contessa and 24mm oko setup, just partially tuned and good god she eats petrol worse than cherry's corsa 28 oko setup!
been getting steady 42mpg cruise and 40mpg hamma time
but hot dang is that takeoff worth it hah

You won't believe this but my undocumented fuel mileage is actually better than it was with the Arreche! I don't measure my fuel consumption because I fill from a can at home, but I'd get only 3-4 trips to work before the needle started kissiing the red zone before. Now I can get 4-5 trips before refill.

Re: GY6 CV Carb Update
That's one of the advantages of a CV carb. Supposed to be more efficient because the throttle slide is only open when it really needs to be rather than at the whim of the operator.
(That's not meant to imply you are heavy-handed or "throttle-happy!).
