Post Linkage problem figured out !

In my last post, you could see that the carb linkage did not look right and only opened up half way with the way the hex bar was set up (left carb)

I sorted this out by making a small 'extension' for the left side drop link. I took some hollow bar stock I had laying around and it just happened to have the correct inner dia to tap a 6mm x 1 thread into it.

I drilled the linkage connection point on the carb arm to enlarge it to 6mm from the factory 5mm. I then tapped the other end of my 'extension' to fit the factory 5mm linkage bolt.

The extension is 1" in length, is solid, I loctited everything and now I have no play what so ever, and both carbs work like they are supposed to.

Problem solved....
