R1 Carb Mounting Angle

Anyone able to tell me what angle the R1 carbs should be mounted at?

TIA, Ian.

I would have thought so that the float bowl line was level,

My R1 carbs, on my R1, are mounted at much more of an angle than that. I haven't the tools to measure it but it might be 30° or 40° more than your pic. You have the float bowl to carb joint horizontal. It is nothing like that on mine.

they will work at pretty much any angle ,as long as you use the r1 pump , these are at a really steep angle and work fine Rescued attachment CIMG0010.JPG
