You have to use the brand of carb that came on the engine from the factory... seen kaws with mikunis and nikkis haven't seen one with a walbro... the factory carb is esy to play with the older engines had removeable jets... easily tunable a little research you can find any size jet ya want... as far as the air filter k and n has a drop in for it and you could prolly get an adapter if you don't mind your filter pokin out the side of your hood... may be able to find a stubby filter that will clamp on ecs adapter there are lots of ways you can go with this...
There's somethin' in the works...

That's what they call a fuel shutoff solonoid or anti backfire solonoid take that out and nip the point off as close as you can to the solonoid then you put it back in and there's the boltto hold the bowl on don't have to worry about the wire goin to it after that...

TAZZ,YOU MUST RUN THE STOCK CARB. YES YOU CAN RUN A AFTERMARKET AIR FILTER. I DONT KNOW OF ANY TYPE OF FILTER OR FILTER ADAPTER BEING MADE FOR THE KAWS. LIKE CHAD SAID, CUT THE PLUNGER OFF THE SOLENOID. SOME OF THOSE CAME WITH A REGULAR BOWL NUT.
I FOUND THE PART #'S FOR THE BOWL NUT. THE NUT IS 92150-2146 AND THE WASHER IS 11009-2025. ANY KAWI DEALER CAN ORDER IT FOR YOU.

Yep you gotta cut it off to get it to run without wiring it to a 12v switched source

ok im helping with this motor i know how to fix the anti backfire switch but what gets me is there is 3 wires coming from under the flywheel 2 are for charging and one is for the coil but which one is for the coil. and also about hooking up the starter wires there is 1 plug and two screws what wire goes where and do we need a selinoid.thanks

The black wires are charging the white one is the coil... the the bolt furthest away from the big part of the starter is where you hook your positive battery cable and the plug is positive 12v from a switched source (starter button or key) so you will need a wire from the battery to one side of the button and a wire from the other side of the button will go to the terminal on the starter... you will not need a solenoid seeing as how what you are wiring to is the solenoid
There's somethin' in the works...
