Another evening, another step completed
I've mocked up the 44 IDF's to see how the hex bar linkage would install and here's what I've found.
The linkage installs with some slight problems... I had to cut about 1/2" off each end of the bar stock... I think the bar is standard and needs to be cut to length... there is about 1" of thread inside the bar after I cut it.
After installation of the linkage, you can see that there is about 4-5mm of clearance between the shroud and hex bar... TIGHT... but nothing rubs...
You can see that the right drop link is almost vertical and the left drop link is not... this will definately affect throttle operation in the left carb ... I checked to see if I missed a peice in the installation but I didn't. I'm going to have to fab a small extension peice from some bar stock I have laying around so the left drop link is vertical as well. No big deal....
Other than that, Its now time to install this baby !
