[QUOTE="badorderbob, post: 6770, member: 323"] [b]Dan the post over at SS was a varity of posts put together. And it has always been the hope there would be a bolt on plugnplay set up. CC had one back in the late seventies or about and CI produced one and then went out of business. And there have been many others who have built theirs not so help with an itch,.. but out of being tired of or spending so much money on the Oems so they tried another way. I always feel I have to defend using a single carb setup wither it be here or over at SS where a big blow up was curtailed by the mods. It's always a shame when one has diffculties wither with Oems or trying other opitions and they don't work. If you can get your Oems to work then by all means do it but what bothers me is when at least we are trying to get our bikes back on the road, some are slamed for trying the Single Carb Conversions.
