    first pic

    4. throttle cable
    5. choke
    1. fuel
    2. oil
    3. vacuum.

    on the senconed pic of the manifold

    they just look like another set of oil and vacuum nipples. i would use the ones on the carb and leave the 2 o the manifold blocked

    the 2 on the manifold are for boost bottles and stuff as kyle said leave them blocked and just use the carb ones

    i found them to be pretty shit, cable is way too long, i have to make a spacer for mine because every time i wanna choke it i gotta pull the wire from the actual carb, takes the piss.

    what i did is cut a hole in my inner panels and mount it there if you look it has a nut on it near the lever where you push it through and wind the nut on the outside to hold it down and then sits flush to the inner panel. and is to hand when sat on the scoot.

    if you know what i mean

    [​IMG] it sits there now, i moved the killswitch to the bars

    yh thats what i did with mine, i meant the actual cable inside as too long.. so there was too much slack, meaning that when you pull the choke it doesnt actually move the choke piston in the carb
