grebo Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 (edited) great progress Ash The carb cable mount makes the cables exit vertically and when I tried then on gsxr motor they fouled the tank.You may not have this problem as its GS motor and looks to sit lower ,also mines a mag1 tank but thought it worth a mention.The general solution is mag4 style mag 2 tank. or altering the tank.I never got round to a solution was going to try altering/make new bracket .However this is about the point life got in the way of my projects Edited January 10, 2016 by grebo 1 Quote Link to comment
