fit a 1.2 CARB head as the 1.2 spi ehad is shockingly bad.

then get an inlet for it from bogg bros... then get it all together and take to bogg bros for setup...

simple but in all honesty do you REALLY want to spend the time effort and money on a 1.2 engine?

No, you'll either need fit a mechanical pump and pressure regulator.
Or keep the 1.2i pump and fit a pressure regulator.]

You'll also need a carb dizzy/coil/module.
I wouldn't bother tbh, you'd probably end up with about 60ish bhp.
Unless you fit a good cam etc too.

no, honesty...... yes ok i spent a lot of time, effort and money on a 1200 engine but thats because i enjoyed the enigneering challenege and sheer pointlessness of it all.

If someone has just thought "ohhh bike carbs on my 1.2 will be great till i get a bigger engine" is really wasting their time etc.. thats all.
