Yep, and it's probably powered by the reversed cylinder single carb setup that guy was doing a year or so ago..........  ::)
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

Hey this is fun! But seriously, Peter "Porky" Allen ran a Kawasaki drag bike with a reversed head back in the 1970's and 80's, so I don't doubt that it can be done Mick, Porky Allen was a very smart man. I just doubted the member here who was attempting it on his 550. Cheers, Terry. ;D

2 carbs, not single.  It was set up with 1 single-barrel carb on each side.

FWIW, I'm not a shill for Race Tech - I've just got a thing for good suspension and the RTCE's are the most cost-effective mod for these old damping rod front ends.

Yep, I just can't decide whether this should have ended up in the abomination thread? Whatever happened to that guy who was gonna show us all how smart he was with his reversed head 550? Maybe he went backwards in time? ;D

He last posted in December 2015, it looks like he has a business doing all sorts of motorcycle work including performance head work, he sponsors road and drag racing teams and has a hand in a few different things, the bike is still a project, just not a priority, {from what I read}, his business has a FB page too.... ;)
