Carb

Big thanks to Willis for coming up with this idea and to Joe to make it a reality, its the cold start side of the carb, it normally has a cable from the handlebars but their is no room for it on the clip-ons plus it neatens everything up on the bars and bike, its my favorite bit so far. It only looks a small piece but the lever had to be designed so that it lifted the standard plunger up high enough and have the right angle on it to stay open, also their is a small bronze bush that has a shoulder on it for the lever but also fits inside the existing cable hole and a small bar to replicate the cable with a turned little pin to connect it to the lever, loads of work for such a small piece!

  1. Wow that's a pretty sweet and trick bit of engineering. Great stuff.
    Look forward to keeping and eye on here.
    Thanks!
