Yes, of course, stay down. Because of the strong spring they snap up immediately when you move a bike around. Man-the-fuck-up is not an answer I'm looking after though.

Right, as some of you might know the old buses have very 'spring happy' sidestands, compared to newer bikes and oilcooled ones. You really have to put your foot down to put it in its place.
Is there a common mod on these to remove the spring so they will stay up?

Read the article, and make sure that when using pod filters to connect some 30cm long lines to the vents in order to have it running correctly.

If you are posting halve pictures you will get halve answers
I believe BST38SS are dual fed, so you need to add a splitter. Vacuum is the one from the inlet rubber. Other pipes are breathers. Did the carbs originally belong on this engine? Sometimes the vacuum comes of the inlet rubber, sometimes of the carb itself.

A lot of people fit a small universal breather filter to it. It is connected with a hose to the airbox normally. You can also leave it like this but it will occasionally spit some oil so fitting a small filter is better.

Spring is fuel, other is vacuum for the tap.

New copper washers should be enough, or some people heat them so they remould.

You can upgrade to Tokiko twinpots easily with an adapter plate.
Your skinny front tire won't take much more braking force than they can deliver

Yes, as other things got in the way (building a house, a baby) I didn't do that modification yet but still planning to. However I will probably first mount some EFE calipers and discs for now.
I would like to fit 4pots as I have casted wheels

Right, the usual suspects @Rene EFEand me will be making our journey across the IOM again (for me after a years absence last year). Should we do a meetup at a pub at some time with some members who are there? We will be there from Friday before raceweek till Senior day probably (still depending on boats).

@Leblowskimight be able to help, he has some Ignitech stuff.

@SiBagdoes it need to be that someone notices? I really like one and would like to have one at some point, just because no-one notices what it is, only when you know.

Snappy sidestands

Haha it turned into a game of guessing. What I mean is that the long sidestand on the slight tip of the bike folds up. Moving the spring is something to consider.
