hiya guys, im coming to the end of my project and want to fit r1 bike carbs, just wanna no if theres any people out there that have done this conversion if so i need to no how to get to the stage of having them fitted and to run on the engine all bits afterwards i am capable of doing such as balancing and tuning etc...
Bogg brothers do the inlet manifolds, or alternatively i believe you can use a normal inlet and cut the inlets then use rubber hosing to attach them.
can use the mk2 cav 1600 big block dizzy setup, not sure on the other setups as i havent looked into them
oh and the jets have to be drilled to 1.8mm (i think)

as bubba said you will need the big block dizzy set up for your ignition side of things, or go aftermarket ecu which i did and now use megajolt but is obviously a bit more expensive
you will also need a low pressure fuel pump and a regulator, i use a facet solid state pump and a filterking regulator
you can use your existing throttle cable, just cut the end off and fit a solderless nipple
you can use any choke cable just do the same as the throttle cable
r1 carbs dont have a return pipe so your current one needs blocked off

Also PM Tom Reid off here for advice as well, he's been doing these conversions for quite a while now.
