Bike Carbs
Hi Chaps,
im after abit of guideance.
I think i want to go down the bike carb route, i have seen a set of ZX9R bike carbs for sale will they be ok?
I ahve a1600 pinto going in my velocity,the old carb with the donor was shot.
The reason for the bike crb route is that they take up less room(i wont have to cut the bonnet and from all the talt seen reliable,
cheers

Yep, they will be fine. Bogg Brothers do decent inlet manifolds plus they will clean and re jet the carbs for your engine too!

I have a set of ZX9R on a bogg bros mainfold for my 2.1 pinto
but I haven't had it running yet
its ~£350 for bogg's to supply a set of carbs on a manifold (carbs serviced and first guess jetted)
less if you can get your own carbs at a better price
the alloy manifold its self from bogg's is about £180 I think - or you could make your own - plenty people on here have done this

The part built I'm getting this weekend has r6 carbs fitted, they cost a LOT more than £180 from bogg bro's... if it was me I'd make
sure I had an agreed final price prior to asking them to do the work, from what the guy told me the price nearly doubled from what he was expecting to
pay... I guess this is just good business practise but its easy to forget to agree a price in the hurry to buy gorgeous parts!
