HS2 is 1 1/4" carby HS4 is 1 1/2" carby on a modded 1100, a hs4 or even a hs6 would be suitable, but hell, if ya got a 1275 lying around, get on it ![]() |

Twin HS2's or preferably a single HS4 on a good manifold is what I would run on an 1100. |

there`s nothing wrong with twin 1&1/2s on a small bore,,, "IF" you already have them that is but not sure it`s worth the time. money & effort to go out of your way to get them just because i said they`d be cool... a single 1&1/2 is fine really if you have a 1275 sitting there looking pretty & if you already have said twin 1&1/2 carbs set up, sitting there looking pretty, then bung them together my friend ![]() |

i wish i had a 1275 lying around just thought id add that in cause the 1100 in it has overheated! probably as a result of driving it around after sitting in an old mans shed for 4 years so next month the whole motor will come out and get a going over/rebuild and thinking which way to go, whether to stick with this motor and modd it(ie twin su's, turbo or supercharge setup) or source a 1275 or just leave it mild pending overall costs considering the 1098 k motor was already in it not the original motor setup of the 998 so the original factor is not an option but as Clarkson says 'More Power'is a good argument |

Is it a daily driver? If it is get it rebuilt stock, maybe a light head job if its cheap. Then buy a 1275 and build that for a fast road engine. Then slot it in down the track and your laughing. |

Just get excited when i have to pull a motor i always think 'maybe i'll just do this and it might go better if i alter it like that' |

What I have Just built a 998 with a 1098 crank nice head, nice Cam & nice exhaust I have a 1 1/2 on a good inlet manifold that matches with the head & SU. Its goes good My wifes daily drive is a 1098 with bigger Cam and head has had more work with the Carb matching the head and the exhaust is also a LCB. It has a HIF44 (1 3/4) carb and have never had to touch it. In say all this you could also go a Dellorto 40 as many do also |

Gone are the days when people left 1275 engines lying around... These days they are kept wrapped up in Cotton wool. That is how I keep my stash of them any way !! |

A 40mm Dellorto is much the same as a 40DCOE Weber. But they are cheaper to buy s/h, easier to tune (IMO) and are more economical on a road car than a Weber is. Usually. ![]() Advantages over single or twin SUs- 1. Throttle shafts have ball bearings and seals, so they don't wear and suck air like SUs do. 2. They are basically 2 carbs in 1 body on a common throttle shaft so don't need synchronising like twin SUs do. 3. Easier to tune, as they have real air and fuel jets, not 1 out of 700+ needles to pick. 4. Once jetted right, they stay in tune..... ![]() ![]() 5. Better throttle response, once on cam. Disadvantages- 1. Poorer low speed throttle response. So you just don't treat the throttle like a light switch. 2. Noise/music- they ain't quiet. 3. They do use more fuel than SUs do. But, it's worth it. ![]() Here's a Dellorto (45mm) on my 1412 stroker, on GR's engine dyno. A 40mm looks the same. |
