same as 90% of things in bleuturd thread , solution I'm contemplating is well known from Yore British twins ..... but I'm asking our hairy friend about minute differences I can expect ......
Hey dodos,
Tomorrow (Dec 19, 2014) is Calhoun's 52nd birthday and 2nd anniversary of no smoking.
Because it's not even 6pm here, I think I'm going to pour myself a big glass of rum and have a little fun tonight. Anyone want to join me?

Happy birthday Cal, it's already the 19th here. What sort of fun are you thinking of undertaking and does it involve a webcam?
Whatever is involved will probably entail a towel strategically draped over said webcam - more power to him...
Q for my kwayzeesuedeflyingboy
say that you have 360 phased parallel twin , with two carbs
say Rebel or XS600 , whatever
it seems to me that having two carbs is wakoo thing , each of them sitting for 360 , waiting on his turn
isn't having just one carb , with common manifold for both cylinders , way to simplify things ..... if nothing else , you don't need synchronizing them anymore ...... while not loosing any power .....
so , what ya , jury , say ?
edit : no , there is no way that I'm going to rephase crappy 125 crank & camshaft , so don't even mention it
It can have some issues with opening and closing periods of the intake and exhaust valves. Construction wise it might be a small win but no biggie. But if its made for two, maybe to squeeze sum extra juice out, I'd keep it like that.
bummer 😉
I know - two short (damn - original are plastikyrubber) direct manifolds are better than Y shaped common one ........
though - I need to rearrange/remove childishly made air filter box and Y rubber to it , and squeeze two KN-like cone filters there ...
so , two , be it
anything new with your steam powered dragster ?

K/N filters or funnels is way to go.
Well, did some extra TIG welding yesterday, didnt trust the ones that were. Gas and oil tank is under manufactoring. Must do some painting to avoid rust after welding tomorrow.
removed nasty hd-like hump from tank , working on nice tidy back fender ....
in fact , working in same time on myriad of things/details ..... but you know how's that ....

Ya. B4 u rip out electrics or sumethink be sure to document. Its not what you're used to. No star grounds there.
New welds on the crown. Dont want to loose that at 200 mph.

several yrs ago I made R25 beemer's nest simpler , have two boats from scratch (ok , under 15m) under the belt , so why hdwanabee would be more demanding .....
Happy Birthday Cal!!! We will see you here tomorrow after you wife let's you get out of bed...... 😀😀😀

Did u do them 12 V? I've been puzzling with what to do with the oil-ship. Can do regular 12, then all the common gear work. Can do 24 then all PRO gear work. Maybe do a 3 or 4 copper line system with -12 - 0 - + 12 V then I have the options. W 24 I can regulate to 12 and have safe computer voltage. What do the big guys do? Dutch boat freak?
on smaller one (7m) I made 12V , on bigger one (12m5) I made 12V, 24V ,220Vac ;
but 24V was made with temporary stacking relay for two 12V accus , just for starter when needed
later we toss that , replacing starter for fast 12V one , ,alternator goes from 24 to 12V too .
that allows us also to mount few 12V solar panels with regs
Jaccolina is certainly more informed about best praxis , in meantime I think that's best if you make it as in trucks - two stacked 12V accu (groups) , then separate routes to 12V consumers and 24V consumers , with small 24 to 12V local regs , for small power 12V consumers
it is certainly least risky
btw. hdwannabe will get simpler wire harness , no doubt

Ok cool,
Lets hear what the dutch dude says. Now I'm going up to the local church to hear if they are interested in distributing groceries to the needing over christmas. I started a thread here on a community facebook page and got many willing. I just cant bear going eating for a whole holliday while knowing people are sitting freezing in corners.
Merry x-mas dodos.
