Thing is tho, you have to know an XE engine to realise it's a standard one chopped up! quite cheeky, and quite a mark up in price!

Jimbo · 10-08-2008, 06:27

You've got to love it! I chucked out 10-15 of them when I packed in my unit.

Arse...That's £2,000 I put in a skip.....doh

TINTIN · 10-08-2008, 06:33

Surely he's breaking rules by advertising it with the name weber in it.

philip2 · 10-08-2008, 07:13

if all the machining work has been done as stated then its a worthwhile item if youre fitting bike carbs. Id buy one if they were about 80 quid, the mark up is just too large
