I've had problems with the accelerator pumps on them, but i think it was because all the ones I had were too old an worn out Here's what they look like
I ran a Carter YF on my 250 for a short period of time without any hood clearance problems. The RBS is a much, much better carb IMO though.
I had one on my '73 for a little while, too, but my air cleaner was hitting my hood a little bit. Its probably all in the right air cleaner.
