Nothing in the world Wrong with the old "B". It does stick out too far tho..If one Knows exactly how to Tune...no accelerator pump is necessary.. Mine is turned Off on my CV even... I do Not like them...

^^ i'm seriously considering adding a accelerator pump to my Super B to help with kick starting,less prime kicks,less wear on my kicker bushing.i already have the pump from v-twin.
