As title suggests... what is the easiest way to get an intake manifold made for a pair of motorbike carbs? (15* not like an SU's 30*)

An S shaped manifold is what im thinkin... would an exhaust shop knock one up or do i go somewhere more specialist?

I made a 15° one years ago for twin Amal Monobloc bike carbs.
I used hollow steel bar and machined the bore out to what I needed.
No need to bend it, just cut each end to 7.5° and weld flanges on. :wink:
