not sure mate, lost contact with him!

As for the carbs sticking out, not the best idea lol! no filter either!

 

[rory182]

they not throttle bodies? R1 is Fuel Injected i.e. no carbs! 40 / 45mm throttle bodies on R1s

 

[Adams_16v]

dunno mate, said R1 carbs on his eBay advert im sure of it!

 

[Rajk]

my mechanic stated that the person who won this off ebay brought it to him, said it ran like a wet bag of poo, hadnt been set up properly at all, the guy ended up putting the standard stuff back on throttle ect, then put neons on it, saw it driving around with a bit of card in the bonnet. Im sure if it was set up right it would have been awesome, but that costs good money and a good re-map.
