45 Webers Versus Bike Carbs Sound

[speedtripledan]

Never had webers before and I have to say they sound very nice better than bike carbs. Not as smooth and lumpy on tick over but will be getting them tuned on the rollers.

Yep the 40's do sound better but found ma bike carbs to drive better. Ma 40's bark like a dog loved opening they babys up.

I loved the sound of my old forties, my bike carbs where smoother. But the induction noise from my Jenvey throttle bodies is the dogs *bleep*s

IMO webers will never give you as smooth throttle response as bike carbs, especially at low down revs.

 

Webers wont give you any more power, but do give a very nice sound track and look brill.

 

If you sold the webers (45's are the most desirable) and bought bike carbs you'd be at least £300 in profit.

got to admit, the induction noise from my TB's is pretty awesome, much more fun than a noisy exhaust. Webers are good however, I'm told they need setting up every 500 miles or so..........

throttle bodies all the way.....

need the filter though to save the small children and kittens getting dragged in from the pavement

I must admit when I hd the 8 throttle bodies they sound at full chat was immense. Knowing what I know now I would go back to them if I had a spare £1500.

 

They looked fookin awesome too
