Freshening up my 69. Has chambers (unknown brand) and mild porting with the bridged port removed. Bore is 60.5 with Wossners. Im thinking about carb / intake mods and possible ignition upgrades. Nothing crazy, just want a snappy little noisy bike for fun to bring to the local bike nights. Im not riding it regularly or commuting on it. So power delivery and ride-ability aren't really a concern.

Your ignition should be fine, it is a good unit if CDI. But their may be an upgrade soon from Lakeland. (Jim here on the board) Bigger carbs are a good idea, if nothing else to get rid of the horrible stock carbs. 30 flats would be great for mild porting and pipes. :thumbup:

Are there 30mm flat slides available? I have only seen the cheapo chinese versions. Anything from Mikuni or Khien ?
Yes it still retains the stock CDI. I have no idea if it works yet as I havnt gotten that far yet. It had plug wires and caps dangling when I got it. The rotor is a bit wonkey as well. Thought I would get the engine done on the bench and finish up paint first, then deal with the ignition and carbs once its back in the frame.

I was cross thinking with the VM's, 32 is the smallest flat, there are also the 30 VM's, and those are fine also.

The Mikuni TMX30 would be an option maybe. At least TMX38 works extremely well on a H2.

A lot of guys also look at investment dollars. The VM 30's are around 82.00 each, the TMX are around 162.00, or double the cost. (not including tuning brass)

VM30 is a rubber mount, and the bike has the bolt on spigots. Is a rubber coupler the way? Any clearance issues to the case ect?

Adapters are needed. I make them. 129.00 a set. And also the rubber manifolds from Sudco are needed. :thumbup:
