Hello All, I recently aquired a '61 R27 w/S250 SC. The previous owner had put an Amal carb on and i was hoping to replace it. I have a pair of '72 R60 carbs...
Aren't the float chambers tilted on the R60 carbs as they are on the 50s and 60s twins? As far as I know on all singles the float chambers are straight....
Marco, The float chambers on the R60 /5 are not tilted as are the older /2 chambers. That isn't to say that some minor bending of the float hinge wouldn't be...
Allan, Thank you very much! (that was fast) The /5 carb is 3.5 inches, there may be hope! Of course, if it doesn't go, i could just buy the correct one. ...

Marco, there is no condensor in my system because i use the MZ electronic ignition. And as far as the vacuum tank, i do start now with an open tank to try to...
I suppose you already tried to change the plug? If it's not the ignition then it must be the carb, it could be a blocked jet making the mixture too lean but...
