One thing to be aware of, and I'm sure others have found this out, too.
Setup (alignment) of your carbs on the manifolds and the alignment of the manifolds to the engine is VERY important. It is easy to get them just a little out, which can lead to distorting the carb bodies when all is tightened up. Not dissing the Don Pender Gantry, I have it installed correctly and it works great. It's just not "plug and play".

Hi everyone,just been in touch with Don and he has been affected by Typhoon Odette. All services have been knocked out since Dec 16th and has asked for a few weeks at least for service to resume.As far I can tell he’s okay, has limited phone coverage. I’m sure we all wish him and the country gets back on its feet, especially hard at this time of year.Take care Paul.

Very Nice..
What rubber flage adapter is that?
Do you have additional support on the back side, or is it hanging on the manifolds?

Also, just to note, the kit does not fit with my aftermarket Fastback tank. So be aware that if you have an aftermarket tank it might not fit. My tank, from Burton Bike Bits, is identical to the OEM fastback tank in appearance but perhaps the bottom of the tank is slightly different from OEM OR the fastback tank is slightly different anyway.

Yes but due to typhoon damage 10 days ago, my house was damaged, here we have no elec, Internet, telecoms, water, gasoline, couriers, everything closed for a while yet, I spend my days searching for water and doing makeshift repairs to my house.
100, s dead probably more like 1000,s.
Bit of chaos here.

One little issue i had was with the gantry using the Roadster tank that came with the bike....
The throttle cable support post was rubbing the inside saddle of the tank irrespective how i positioned the tank
In the end i removed the post and applied a set to it to give clearance.
it was only when i had similar clearance issues with the DT head steady rose joint that the penny dropped... it was the Indian made tank causing both clearance issue
Since i fitting an Emgo tank i have no clearance issues

In a time of plenty, it's easy to take for granted what we all have.
A daily search for water can bring that home in a hurry.
Peace and Best Wishes to you Don.
