Which carbs and Filters

#1 PostAuthor: GPRD » Mon Mar 17, 2014 2:44 pm

I'm getting a GPz750 engine rebuilt and 810 conversion and I would like some opinions on which carb and filter route to go down.
I have some BS34s and some VM28s, so I could use either.
Also, I would like the best I can get out of the engine, so I guess I will have to use pods. What sort of pods are the best way to go? Foam? K&N style? Bell mouths?
Any thoughts or experiences would be appreciated.

Cheers

This, with advice from other areas, it would appear the BSs are the way forward.
The 28s will be for sale, when I come up with a price, I have just spent a good amount of time cleaning them. They all work ok, but a couple of the thread for attaching the bowls have been opened up by the PO.
