Yeah, its not a direct fit though, my Sammy 1.3 has the conversion kit on it to give the correct fitment (an adaptor plate sort of thing) a lot of people on here use SU carbs as they are better off road (and designed to work at any angle) but I think the weber has the edge in terms of performance

I'm with Dan - Su carb, custom inlet manifold, 4 branch headers with 2" Exhaust - takes some beating! :doublethumbs:

Rockwatt's the man for the inlet manifold. Good value and the SUs are much better than the standard carbs in my opinion.
There's three ways of doing things:

The right way,
The wrong way
And my way, which is like the wrong way but faster.
