In the winter you can put your feet on the cylinder heads to keep warm 👌

It's getting what's inside the pants sucked into the carbs that worries me 😵
And worse, a spit-back through the carb, igniting your pubes 😩

Hmmm, interesting mix on that, probably would go very well. I have an NH350 and VH 500 from '56 along with a couple of Thunderbolt engines sitting spare but had not considered something like this.

G'day GB.
Setting the points in the left engine would be a pain. Interested how the primary is set up.
Cheers
