DT1 flat track project

The frame for this bike is a '68 DT1, but I'm using a '72/'73 DT2/3 reed valve engine. Here is the reed cage with stock reeds.


Here are the stock reeds and the Boyesen dual stage power reeds.


The new reeds installed in the stock cage.


Pretty much the engine is done now except for the ignition and carburetor. I've got a stock flange mount Mikuni round slide 26mm carb, but might go with a new 28mm spigot mount. A new VM28 is about $95, and when you figure in the time and money to do a proper rebuild on the stock carb, I might be better off just starting off with a brand new one. Here is a Mikuni m-vm28-200k adapter.


This would let me use a new spigot mount VM if I decide to go that route.
