Re: Tyre Sizes

Hi guys. I was driving our own Moggie and the car is wandering. I had a look at the tyres and the side walls are cracking. They are 145 x 80 x 14.

All interesting. But i am now set on a single modern bike carb. Why not. I wull simply take the current manifold and get the alloy welding/ fabricating guy across the road to manufacture the connection between old and new.
I will keep everyone updated on the functionality of the conversion.
