Re: Motorcycle Carbs on 1300 suzuki 4WD engine

As cool as Quads are and assuming its a G13A . Its a waste of time with that engine.
you wont see any more gains than from a cam / exhaust & SU or Weber
the limitation is the head design and valve sizes.

better to get a G13B DOHC instead . Plane and Turbo :mrgreen:

a 255 / 85 R16 Fits Nicely on a 7" Disco Rim
I would prefer the 255/85 over the 285/75 as the 255/85 are a slightly taller and skinner tyre. 33x10" compared to 32x11"

Re: '93 Surf Speedo dramas

the speedo is driven off the ECU . which receives a signal from the speed sensor on the transfer case .

Have you checked the wiring has no breaks / shorts ?
I would borrow an ECU and Custer to check your loom / sender .

he will be able to order a bullbar to suit the 8274.
there is not a lot to mount to on the front of a defender , so custom bar work / winch mount is going to require a lot of fabrication .
