+1 TG, only thing that doesn't quite work are the plastic stacks on the CR's.  Should have gone to extra step and fitted alloy ones.

White plastic stacks are authentic Daytona TinTop but you need old style Keihin CRs for that....or Mikunis if you listen to the old Honda engineers on Tommy Robb's bike but that's another story....alloy stacks on those modern CR Kiehins are silly silly money - set of four almost the same cost as the carbs!

Lots of lovely Moonpie parts on the TT CR750 too - Brian did a fantastic job in a real short time to produce this one...

SOLD...!!! ;D   They've still got the Yoshi stickers on them Johno, the are actually the stamped CR900's, set up for Z900's and GS1000's but i have the manifolds that make them fit the 750/4, they were on the old 750/4 drag bike i bought years back, they are in perfect condition with spare needles and jets.... ;)  I would take $ 1500.00 for them, from what i've seen on ebay recently thats cheap...
