    Awaiting reply from Chariot

    Making these manually is a shit ton of work due to bend so lots of grinding by hand. . . X2.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    You could ask Flet he might have even made then For TSS and have a File already.
    i linked the question to flet to BTW


    On the other hand the bggered UPP intakes will have a steel or alloy inner and might only need the facing and taping some holes to suit with the appropriate inlet stub fitted.
    here are the dimensions

    Watching this thread with interest. Surprised at the depth of difficulty you've had thus far, far out.

    Been riding the KX500 for a couple of decades now, not so much these days though but, never had a problem with the Keihin carb, not once. Jetting was always delivered rich from new, lean it out drop the needle a notch or two and you're pretty much good to go. 5 cents

    My pwk on dirtbikes have been pretty good too. Far better than mikuni. That said the tears in the manifolds can't have been useful. Just took them off. Horror story.

    The CR straights will be for a 39mm carb which, measuring a spare is 46mm od. My 35s are 42mm od. But thanks anyway.
    The TSS ones were straight shot so no tilt for those fcr carbs or whatever . Mine are 35deg.

    I machined those straight shot ones, never made any angled ones.

    Do you still have the file flet for the CNC path
    if dave was to send you one of his rubber ones would it be possible to see if it could be made to work with a altered mounting angle
    it seems the ones Dave has have been ripping up all over the show, it might be a way to sell off a fair few

    These chariot ones fit the PWK35 apparently so likely my best option. There's no point Neil getting into a price war with these guys over a tiny market.

    Just been looking at old site. $58 for pair of inlets was pretty sharp!


    Just bought the Chariot ones. Found a cheaper shipping option.

    Just hope they fit the carbs in ok, UPP ones were offset in a little. Should be ok.

    Here by the way for archive of site for those that never saw it. Some cool parts.

    Neil did you make the Flat PVs? When I changed barrels my old ones were a bit short for good match.

    I waybackwhened it for the pics i got.
    Fair call re parts, looks like RPM manf way have recently gone out of business
    $275 for straight cut gears was cheap too, Although reading Steves first divorse blurb the made a heap but never sold them on account of wrong spec'd hardening or something?
    Still sad after all these years.
    I was thinking about your one, has it got the additional reservoir aka bypass,( i think Neil still had those a while back)
    The bigger water impeller was $68 likely a Neil part as well.
    The Rad was $750 big money then but made by local rather than Ckinky
    i should get one of Calvins CR5 Cylinders
    http://www.cpindinc.com/pub/view_pro...=3101-9779-144
    never noticed they have provision for a blade PV
    Still leave the Vibing crank and 5 speed gearbox though plus cylinder reed and no electric start.
    Riley Will's 500CC KTM might be better.

    The Google earth of tss showed a single suburban dwelling without any garage. We'd actually talked before he set up when he saw my bike on another forum. Funnily enough one of his earliest posted was about getting scammed by someone . Ironic as alanis morriset doing something unironically.
