id like to get the mikuni vm36 carb conversion as the old carb is knackered, anyone got any idea of the price of importing one,, im in the UK

The more i see it the more I like it, very very nice bike.How about a Amal Mk2 Concentric:2000 Series? http://www.amalcarb.co.uk/default.aspx. The Amal and mikuni vm36 are a big inprovment over the bs40. You still need a cable and some way to fix to your intake,but it can be done.

AWESOME bike! I may have to base my '87 off this a bit. What did you guys use for the side cover paint? Looks like a gun metal grey.

Title: Re: My Mooneyes Bobber
Post by hotrodbobber on 11/18/12 at 01:53:21

hi yea its anthicite, similar to gun metal, but beware, it gets hot and mine gets sticky so im sure it wont last long !! make sure you use a paint that can take a little heat

Title: Re: My Mooneyes Bobber
Post by hotrodbobber on 11/18/12 at 01:54:29

Outstanding job on the bike looks like you had couple hours in saving her from the video.  More ideas to store away for when I get the motivation.
