I have also thought of putting on FCR39's but the TM-36 run fine and I'm enjoying the bike too much to dismantle everything just for the FCRs. I also was fighting to get the clutch piston and pressure plate to line up properly, and believed to have resolved the issue. Can't go without a little drama on this old thing

I got hold of two used slant bodied horizontal FCR39's with choke (enrichment) knobs designed for dirt bikes. Powerbarn provided a 2 into 1 throttle kit and Niche Cycle supplied manifold boots. After some fiddling they work well (on an M750 modified to dual sport). MikuniOz can sell everything to build a TM kit similar to your set up and I would recommend that as an easier cost effective kit for belt drives. Used FCRs can cost more than a complete kit for the TM 36/38. I'll do the TMs as a budget option if not requiring an accelerator pump. Thanks again for sharing. |

Roger, Perfectly executed, kind of restomod.  Love the black air cooled desmodue engines (with the alloy belt covers). What did you do with the exhaust manifolds/pipes, is that paint or ceramic coating? Have lots of fun with it!  Frank |

Thanks, Frank! I inherited the bike pretty much how it looked I just brought the internals back to life and up to date. The header and pipes were painted, I think. My contributions were mainly the carburetor tuning, ignition coils, fuel filter, and chain/sprockets.I also have a new shock on the way to bring up the rear end to quicken steering and reduce the shallow lean angle  Thank you! -Roger |

The shock looks great. What type is it? Also what length did you go for? Is this standard. Inquiring minds need to know (well I need to know for future options on mine! Yours selfishly Keith MM in a super hot London |

Keith, The shock is from Cogent Dynamics Engineering. It is 13.375 in (340 mm) long at the shortest and can be adjusted out quite a ways. The original carb SS shock was 13 in (330 mm), which had the bike steering quite slow in comparison. The SSie shock at 13.25 in (336 mm), offered a good length for many carb SS riders for quicker steering. Hopefully this helps! -Roger |
