Default Bike carbs drawing

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Bike-Carb-...item35bfb886ee

Looks like a useful drawing for a quid. Same company sells the manifold plates. Worth a look at their other stuff.

Yes, I found it weird that there was no CD-ROM with drawings tacked to the back cover, even though the author and publishers consider it's Ok if readers create their own and share.

thats from danST (on locostbuilders) he basicly just makes and sells bike carb conversion manifolds,flanges,fluro hose kits and related parts you may have see his stand @ donnington
he also caters for bike throttle bodies and i think he said he is looking at doing fuel rails and injector port fitments soon.
not sure i would be buying plans but his work looks pritty good and his stuff looks well made and designed

no bad comments on locostbuilders so cant be bad to deal with

I run my 2000cc RS2000 of a set of ZX6R carbs. So a 1800cc CVH will be ok.

I run bike carbs on a pinto after much reading I learnt that matching the bhp of the bike to the engine is a good rule of thumb so for eg zx6r are about 130 bhp which I plenty for a mildly tuned pinto

Yes agreed mg, the only thing you may have to change are the jets which are cheap and easy to change anyway.
