Though y'all might find this interesting. There's always another way to do things, and Suzuki found it! This was for their smaller twins; their larger twins used two carbs, but retained the unusual reed valve arrangement.

PS: This set up reminded me of the old ALCO diesel locomotive engine: Instead of the conventional 4 valves per cylinder, ALCO arranged the valves in-line (vs. side by side).

Do you have the carbs for a 50 or 60? Thanks gus

Sorry; no parts, just curiousity!
