[QUOTE="tumunga, post: 6774, member: 58"] Oh, no problems here. I love the idea of a single carburetor to play with. The only thing is the LD conversion is advertised as being simple, and in one of the posts by LD (or his buddy) it was said the conversion would be up and running in 1 hour. That's why I shelled out $513 for the carb and the intake. I pulled off a good set of factory carbs to put the single on my bike. Shoot, I put off buying a real nice road sofa to put that thing on my bike. For that kind of money, it's supposed to work as advertised. It didn't for me. I piddled with that thing for 3 weeks trying to get it going. Me, LD, and his friend, went back and forth through numerous emails, and couldn't get anything to work. Once I get the carburetor refund issue resolved, I'll get back with you all. Just for the record, I pulled the LD intake off the bike, and had my carbs back on there and running like a top in 1 hour, so I guess in that respect, what I read was correct. [/QUOTE]
