Um I wouldn’t even consider that route. I would run away from that setup.

I've always been a fan of the Del'Orto DHLA40 dual throat carbs. Sharp looking, but I wouldn't want to try and tune one.

Hey, 2 Hyperchargers! one to chit in and the other to set on top it up.

Don't buy into this gizmo, 1 CV tuned right is all you need.

No way I would even consider buying them.
I was just wondering if any of You guys ever tested a set on one of Your bikes.

No, there are better ways to use those $1700 the seller asking for it.

One of the things I like about Evos is their single intake / single carb. Simple. Easy.

I've had four carb bikes. Nothing wrong with them, but getting them setup and balanced can be a fiddle.

Can't for the life of me imagine why anyone would want to put a second carb (on the same intake, no less) on an Evo.

As an old drag racer, 4 carbs are easy to tune with a set of mercury sticks, if each carb is feeding one cylinder and are the same distance from the head, a set of mercury gauges will do it. I wouldn't want to work on that setup...
