CV carbs on a 3TJ SP

Post by Drunkn Munky » Sun Jan 26, 2014 8:44 pm

Is the airbox base different on a FCR kitted SP than a CV kitted RR? Reason i ask is that im putting CV carbs on my SP while i await for the FCR's to be repaired and have these 4 tubes coming out the top of the carbs which i assume connect to the airbox in someway but the airbox i have for my FCR's doesnt have any provision for these.

I know i also need the rubber boots that sit inside the airbox for the CV carbs but apart from these the throttle and choke cables is there anything else i need to fit CV carbs on a FCR kitted SP?

Those pipes don't connect to anything on my RR mate. The ones with the filters on are just laid flat pointing towards the fronr of the bike.

The other two just point downwards towards the crankcases.

If all you need are the rubber boots, I should have those in the garage!
The airbox had holes in and I have also chopped a chunk out for another reason, but the boots should still be there.

They balance the pressure in the carbs I think.
