b40rt Posted July 16, 2011 Report Share Posted July 16, 2011 Hi Stevie If you decide to go Amal Surrey Cycles can usually recommend jetting, cutaways etc. (Go for the brass slide) http://www.surreycycles.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
totalshell Posted July 16, 2011 Report Share Posted July 16, 2011 i think there was a bit of 'upset' this year over the mk1 amals with a built in choke so keep it simple. surrey cycles will certainly set you on the path but a little tweaking may be req as all bikes are different esp cubs where a little cough or hesitation off closed throttle may need some work to clear or may not even be evident at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
