I just got an Email back today and the guy said that they are currently assembling them, and their goal is to have all of the preorder shipped by the third week of December. They're coming people

That would be pretty impressive if they haven't even started shipping yet. I'd be very curious to know the amount of preorders, but I'd imagine its quite a few! I think I might wait until a little time goes by before my order goes in. Hopefully the 36mm will roll out before summertime for the 200.
It's the 3rd week of december.. any news on shipping? excited to see how this first round of use goes with the masses.

Any updates?
Had anyone heard anything? APT facebook page said that shipping was supposed to start last week, but there doesn't seem to be anybody talking. I'm hoping APT is just too busy shipping carbs to be talking on any forums. I don't know what my order number is so I don't know if I'm going to get one first or last.

Hello? Is anybody there?
I saw that Mtn-doo is running the new 38mm cast smartcarb on his 300. Has anyone else received their carb yet? I'm still waiting for the email that tells me mine has shipped. Last I talked to them I was assured I would have mine by the second week of January, but the year was not specified. I'm trying to be patient, but 5 months is a long time to wait. Come on APT, make me a believer.

Has anyone installed a carb heater on the smart carb yet?
Just wondering how big a job it is one these and if there is a spot to tap the element into?

smartcarb heater
Check out mtn-doo' s ktm 300 build. He's got a heater installed on the cast smartcarb. He must be living right to have gotten his carb already. Lucky.

I believe he is a dealer for them, and also a big source of advertisement with threads like the ktm300xc build thread. The bike he built does sound as if it runs real clean in the youtube video he recently posted. I really want them to ship the darn things so I can compare my set-up to the sc, and determine if I need one or not. must be frustrating for you guys that prepaid!
APT Pre-Orders
You guys are awesome. The cast 38's are being shipped out now- Shipping more out each week. Based on the great reviews I have heard from other forums and early orders, I feel better that it is a fantastic fuel delivery system. Just sorry that its almost February now! PM with questions or 816-416-7143, you may have to leave a message.

4 stroke version isnt available yet
I suppose the claim about 80% less emissions than EFI must only apply to four strokes, because 2 strokes would still be burning oil using the smart carb, correct? While I think EFI in four strokes is overrated, direct injected two strokes are fantastic and I don't think you can get much better than that for emissions and power.
incorrect. dirt bike fuel injection systems so a piss poor job atomizing the fuel. where a good carb does a much better job which equals more power better emission. people like efi cause its simple. not jetting/ tuning for temp or elevation

Smartcarb shipped!
I just got a phone message from Liz Harvey at APT that my carb shipped out yesterday. It'll probably stop along the way to watch the Super Bowl so I'll probably see it Monday, but I'm hoping for Sat. Thanks for the phone call Liz, you made my day.

Do you know what pre-order number you were?
a gas leak
an ideally operating carb has the possibilities of delivering a nicely atomized fuel mixture. the problem is at low engine RPM's meaning low air flow... carbs don't operate ideally, when off the pipe or at unideal pressure wave revisions in your exhaust systems carbs can't deliver a nice atomized fuel mixture. newer carb designs have widened this window of better atomization.
good fuel injection delivers correctly atomized fuel at all throttle openings, carbs haven't yet been able to do this.
dirt bike fuel injection performance has been judged on the low tech poorly designed systems offered to the public on the dirt bikes to date. you will never have good throttle response with air delivery through butterfly air valves on current FI systems , can't happen, but they sell you that on your $10k bike.........very poor and crude.
NASCAR and dirt bikes...........last place in high performance ( well ok not so high ) motors stuck on carbs. Will all change.
