Maybe it's just me , but I'd prefer to see a BG carby & air filter sticking out through the bonnect than VL/N Grp A twin thottles . & at least you dont have to worry bout getting slugged with the tune everytime you do a mod .

Sorry Duke57TT I forgot id posted in this thread. Basically exactly what you just said. The atomization really starts before the engine being the carbys on top. I have an article somewhere by barry grant on it. Ill try dig it out Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
