Bean Pot Float Bowls for Linkert Carburetors

Some Linkert MR-3 and MR-4 racing carburetors featured larger bowls to provide additional fuel capacity under extended wide open throttle conditions. Due to their shape Racers soon nick-named them "bean pot". They make for a very good performance upgrade for stroker engines or other horsepower directed modifications. These reproductions are complete assemblies with nitrophyl float, bowl cap, lever, bushings & pin, metal tipped needle and seat. There is a relief machined into the side of the bowl as original to clear the lower throttle shaft casting on the carb body.

Yuasa AGM Batteries

AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) batteries offer quite a few advantages compared to standard motorcycle batteries. They are leak-resistant, the sulfuric acid is bound in glass mat fleeces between the plates. They are sealed and can be installed tilted by 45°. During normal use they will not gas, so there's no destilled water to be refilled. Due to their construction they deliver about 1/3 more cranking amps than their "wet" brothers, which you have to check for fluid level often. These batteries are not perfect though: whenever your mount is left unridden for a while, you have to maintain them by a charger.
The batteries are filled and leak-proof sealed only before dispatch. The battery should directly be connected to a battery charger after unpacking and charged according to the instructions.
