So, i had a problem with my progressive on my 1641. It was leaking out of my secondary, then something ignited it when i was cranking it over.(was not fun lol) So i had a set of dual webber carbs on the shelf, had them rebuilt. I was wondering how well they are going to run, and if any one knew a good jetting combo. im hoping these give me a good low end and not load up all the time. all i gotta get for them is a new heim joint for the linkage kit.

thanks,

Dave

What size webers? You'll probably have to put smaller venturies in them to start.

I had those carbs on my 1600 and the did good even though they were out of tune and I had no clue how to tune them good ! Glad you got the fire out before it went all bad !

Im glad we got it out too. lol I couldnt have watched my buggy burn down. I just gotta find the heim joint for the linkage kit then im gonna get them on and see if i cant find anyone to tune them. I have heard i need a vacuum gauge on both of them or something like that? is that true? And what kind of gaskets should i run from the manifolds to the heads? I have the paper style now
