Liking the new wheels 8)

Regards the bike carbs, do not use facet pump with them. Just use the standard mechanical pump as that way you can retain the factory fuel return etc. When i bolted my bike carbs onto Z6 had no end of trouble with the carbs flooding because of the electric fuel pump. When i had them on my D15B ran sweet as using factory pump etc.

Also you will need a vacuum block other than that its not too tricky setting the carbs up, just make sure your float bowls are level when the carbs are are on it and bolted to the engine. as if they arent it'll be a right PITA

Cheers man :top:

That sounds a lot less hassle tbh. I know the angle and stuff, just hoping I get my manifold back soon. Need to possible make a baseplate for trumpets or air box or filter haha!
