Ditch the injection?

I don't know if these produce more power but I think they look rather nice

They're Honda Fireblade carbs on a Bogg Bros custon manifold.

Bet they sound good

Interesting.

Wonder what power they'll produce...and what 'economy'.

Got to be cheaper than a set of webers, but more for a trackday car I'd have thought.

Personally - I'd stick to EFI ..

Even upgrade it a little bit

Here's mine..(blue led added just for a bit of fun) - sorry it's ald old picture and a bit work in progress there.



and the thermostat arrangement at the front


Planning on refitting manifold after I had to add new thread holes for the throttle position sensor - as there were in the wrong place. Also planning on a motorbike ride this weekend.

At least they got someone else to do the welding on the inlet manifolds.. god forbid they let the same person who did the exhausts loose on alloy
