As the thread starter, you can do that yourself I think.

Anyone we know?

Never heard of a twin carb conversion.

Why would you do that?

It’s odd isn’t it?

When Triumph relaunched the Bonneville, they hid the fuel injectors in the bodies of what looked like carbs. And put air cooling fins on the engine.

Why not take a 750 engine, remove the innards, fill the space with batteries and put an electric motor behind the “gearbox” sprocket?

CB750 / 1981 CB900FB2 Bol Dor
« on: July 22, 2026, 06:54:56 PM »
I had a 900FZ in about 2009.

It was gorgeous and what I really wanted when I was at Uni.



I lent it to Classic MCM for a road test and the loved it. But they broke the tail fairing when pushing it up the ramp into their van. Amateurs.

Doesn’t the word “project” fill you with fear?

1976 Heat Wave, for me that was a great year, I met my future wife.

Me too!

Our first date was 1st June 1976. We went down the pub on my CB125S. If I remember correctly I wore a Wrangler denim jacket and jeans. She wore a rather fetching off-the-shoulder sundress…

Been married 45 years in August.

You are right Ted.
Never tried it.

BB Code = Bulletin Board Code
These forums used to be called Message Boards or Bulletin Boards back in the day.

Bulletin Board Code was what you could embed in the post that would do fancy stuff like change the colour or size of the font or insert pictures or links.
