Steve - 2/4/13 at 09:49 PM

Hi guys

I have a 1300 xflow standed apart from a slight over bore. Not sure which to get for best results I've seen some cbf600 ones on eBay and some yzf600 would any of these be any good??

I need a manifold too any recommendations where to get one from I'm in pontefract West Yorkshire.

Cheers steve

Bogg Brothers over in Malton. Call them, Dave will tell you without any obligation.

And, if you fancy they can make the manifold and do the set up on there rolling road. Highly recommended.

If you want to do it locost style have a look at just using the original bike carb rubbers with the carbs re-spaced. All you need over and above a bit of basic fabrication is someone with a lathe to turn the fuel feeds for you.

Steve have a chat with martin keenan down at mk engineering he can fabricate most things at sensible prices, I have some cbf600 carbs laying about if you cant find anything at sensible prices,

They are a really tight fit on the 1.3 against the side exit dizzy cap, but the car starts 1st time and runs well (probably needs setting up on a RR though). I bought a ZZR600 fuel pump, classic mini choke cable and bolted it all togther, so quite easy to fit.
