Kev, let us know how you the throttle action with those RS flatslides. I hear it can be stiff.
That's the reason some folks have switched over to the smoother roller flatslides like the Keihin FCR or Mikuni TMR carbs.

Love to see that dyno sheet!

Cheers lad

..........only reason I chose the Mikuni's over the Keihin's was because of the cooler weather...firing CanD up without a choke would have proven difficult with the cooler air up here....I will post the Dyno chart once I get it.....no rush.....with the snow moving in...but I promise to post

Hey Bob.....great to hear from you...how is everything...I certainly missed getting together with you this year along with the rest of the gang...but it was not in the stars....it has been a strange strange year for me....and it's still not over....lol. Gord has quite the rep around the country.....He told me he used to work a lot with Scott Goodyear way back in his early days racing......The reason for taking so long was one....he is jammed to the ceiling with motors.......by the time he finally got to CanD....summer was almost over and 2...he had to send the cam shafts down to California to get done and they took forever to find their way back.....now that everything is done....there is no rush to put her on the road now as the snow might be arriving in Southern Ontario tomorrow  :shok:. She'll be good to go by next spring at least......what are you gonna do?? We'll hook up next year for sure.
