I'm running 32mm chokes in my engine ( now out to 1500cc ) and that probably is getting to the limit of the 40mm sidedraughts.
I would have thought that twin 45's would have been about right or at the very least 32-34mm chokes on the 40's.

do you mean franklins as in same people who do cam grinds?

i had this beast tuned by a friend on the dyno and i had jetted the carbs myself correctly just needed a bit of fiddly tuning and made an extra 12kw atw so we are now at 72kw at the wheels but i need some extractors to get that little bit more.

Great looking progress. All the best with prep for the trip. I thought I was ambitious before Labour Weekend, maybe I should add a few things to my list, I feel like I am slacking looking at you have ahead of you
