29 carbs on a 23

Post by gromit »

just picked up a set of 29 carbs for my 23 track bike, apart from the airbox that I need is this a straight forward fitment or does the airbox need modifying, Also, had a look at the shock today, looks like there is no ride height adjuster fitted, do you all play about with different length dog bones to get the ride height right, anyone ever dropped the front and raised the rear for a faster turn in.. :D

ive done it all man
u will need the 29 throttle cable and a way of adapting an airbox to it...i modified a nc29 hrcrep ram airbox to suit my 23...alot of work doing it that way..but the bikes quick...will be even quicker if i fit the flatslides i have now muhaha
dont piss around with the rear suspension,speak to graeme france,get the 600 conversion rear shock done,it lifts the rear in the process,and u get full adjustment
happy building

looks like those flatslides are a waste of space stimpy. it appears that the rules are outing them, back to old school rules. although nothings set in stone yet.

Sorry to hijack this but does anyone know how easy it would be to fit these flatside carbs ' cbr400 keilin fcr flatslides carbs 32mm' to an nc 23, the seller on this forum said they are for the nc 29. What mods would be needed? i airbox etc?

Thanks.
