DT1 flat track project

I ended up going with a new 30mm carb for the DT. It is a Mikuni VM30-83.

I'd already bought an adapter for a smaller carb, but needed to get a different one for the VM30. It is part number m-vm34-200k. I had to drill out the holes to 8mm, and go to cap screws instead of the stock studs to fasten it to the manifold since there isn't enough clearance for nuts.

The air filter is a UNI angled 2 stage part number UP-4229AST.

The throttle is Emgo part number 44-97760. It looks to be the same part as the Motion Pro Turbo throttle I have on my SR500. The cable is Barnett part number 101-80-30007. It is a universal cable for Gunner Gasser applications, so also fits knock-offs like the Emgo.

I use Yamalube 2S in the oil tank on my DT3, but since I'm running pre-mix on this bike I'll be using Maxima Castor 927.

The coil is Emgo part number 24-71532. The center-to-center distance is shorter than the stock coil, so I had to drill the frame bracket.

The chain is a cheap ebay 520 non o-ring. It looks nice.

Normally there is a gusset/bracket where the filter is, but apparently it was cut off at some point in this bike's life, probably to fit a filter like this one. The filter clears the frame, but the outer cover touches the rear of the engine case, which isn't a concern.

The list of things to do before first start-up is getting short.
