It's the same amount of work for every kit, but that is your call. At the end of the day you have balance the risks, costs and benefits. My ethos has always been if there is an increase in either risk or cost then there has to be a very substantial increase in benefit to balance the equation. This is the "bang for buck" calculation, I did a formula for it but ultimately you have to be happy with your choice.

The kits start at 200cc (66 bore) and have the capability to be bored up to 71mm or so, this is about 20 over-sizes (enough for a lifetime of riding). PM me your email address and I'll send you the dyno. Yes, it is a touring tune.

Hi. Did anyone try to fit a Dellorto VHSH 30mm on the left hand side on a gt200? The VHSH is a very tall carb and my concern is will the float bowl hit the cylinder cowling or is the 30mm manifold pointing upwards enough to clear the carb? I have only been comparing with the 25mm inlet manifold on my GT 186 and it looks tight...
