I am onto my 5th Niva now and #5 has had the original carby rebuilt then when it got the better of me I fitted a Cortina carb off TM.
Heaps more responce power etc etc.
Never looked back since and wish I had done the swap years ago.

I'm not exactly keen on swapping the carb right now, it seems fine for what I use the thing for atm (lawn ornament, soon to be a daily for my Dad) :D
