Its actually its second start, but first start with the new manifold and bike carbs.

It needed a lot of choke on the carbs but seemed to run nicely, a lot better than the old carb and the exhaust manifold didn't glow bright red this time!

First mod to the carbs will be adjusting the idle mixture to get it running without lots of choke, then not sure what to do for IVA. Leave it or open up the jets to 1.5mm or 1.6mm.

I've also laid my loom in place and will be connecting up the ignition , so it will start off the key next time (super cool!)
Mine passed iva on the standard jets with flying colours, obviously you cant drive it hard up in the revs like that as it will be lean

After a good few runs on a rolling road I ended up with 180 jets, 170/175s were safe too mixture wise but 180s had a touch more power

Still would have passed emmisions tests if required with the bigger jets in

The cvh head doesnt flow very well so doesnt suck very well hence the quite large jets for a modest power output
