Yes, it ran and the owner thought it ran well although over heating. Is he in for a surprise. Have burnt almost 2 gallons on test stand. I'd think we are about at the limit of a single 1 1/4 SU. I have worked on a single 1 1/4 SU and improved it's breathing quite a bit. It takes time and trouble but it can be done. We will see how this std carb. will fair Steve (CTR)

I wish that 850 was closer to me. I'd like to pick up a couple of 850 s just for the parts. I have been rebuilding small bores and kind of enjoy it. Early 850 s seem to have been around long enough that bad things have happened to them. The one I just finished had the front seat slinger installed backwards pushing the seal out, both tappet cover gaskets were wrong and pushed out. The canister oil filter had the wrong hardware inside and a wide square section o ring instead of thin. Breather tube was missing and the coil was the wrong one. The wrong Pertronics was installed and the vacuum advance was locked by wrong mounting screw and the weights were rusted to the pins. Steve (CTR)
