Ideal appreciate the response, opens my options up about what I can put on there I have a 35mm pwk air striker carb I'm wondering if that maybe too much

[Zrako]

Is that a banshee carb ?

[andrewj1680]

@Zrako I think so yes, it was also on my cr500 originally someone had tamed it down it now has a 39mm

[Zrako]

Haha Im not surprised , cr500 is a beast . Any pic mate ?

Road register it

[Mightyman]

@Louis-James he mentioned in the other thread it's a road registered bike but no MOT at the moment.

If you don't use the pipes do they need to be blocked off
Or can they be removed from the carb altogether by warming the carb an removing the pipes so it looks neat
What about the head an thermostat housing can these be blocked off
Does any one have a pic to show how they have done it

[Calum]

@dan28 Leave the carb alone. But the head will need to be blocked off, or lines looped, else you'll have coolant coming out of the head.

[declan]

@calum you can’t block it can you isn’t it a transfer for coolant?

[Calum]

@declan Not the hoses he's referring to.
