today i got a chance to put the new carby on my bike
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
no room for the air filter because the manifold is too big :mmph: i could wait till tomorrow and buy a carby spinner then i had a thought
check my wifes bike she has a smaller manifold :hmmm: i wonder
so i pull the manifold and carby off her bike and the new carby and manifold back off my bike
then i decide to just give her the new carby as i cant be stuffed taking two identical carbys off different manifolds and swapping them over
put new carby and manifold on her bike

now im stoked it fits:cheeky-smiley-031:
a quick test ride around the backyard [feathering the throttle in second gear as yard is too small] seems to have made a huge difference in power from the old carby

i was going to use the manifold that held this carby on there but the hole in it is heaps smaller than the opening of this carby maybe this one just needed a more open manifold but i dont care now ive got a bigger carb and my wife has a new carb
and just to top the day off we all piled in the commodore and drove out to appin its only down the road 10 mins from my place [didnt take bikes though i dont have riding boots or jersey so cant ride there that sucks:blah:] to let the kids watch and to get them used to the noise.
cheers
