34 mm flat slides on a Hondamatic drag bike? Not recommended. Overkill on size with a stock motor and impossible to setup loading the motor against a locked rear brake at wide open throttle. It looks pretty, but it won't race successfully with that setup. ;D

Buy it Jon and give me a deal on the carbs! Swap you a stock set + $200.
As of today 3/13/2012 my original owner 75 CB750F has made it through 3 wives, er EX-wives. Free at last.  ;-)

I don't do pretty. See Bill for that!  ;) I've already got 4 automatic drag bikes in various stages. The last thing I need is more debt. ::)
