Honda Hobbit forks should be the same. You can get EBR's that have a mount for disc.

You should always wear the leathers anyway, just to show people how serious you are about scooting. And because I've yet to see somebody on a scoot in full race leathers!

Any issue running the carb at that angle? Or w just a bell mouth w no filter? I've got a bell on mine but I'm planning on using a giant air filter.

In the "mock-up" photo, the carburetor is mounted traditionally.
This last photo shows the carburetor reversed.
Is there an explanation for this reversal.. :?: .. as it makes me ask the same question regarding proper functioning.

Ya, I've seen drag guys do this too. Wonder if it helps/works.

Rebuilt a Tillitson once, on a Harley Davidson 2-stroke golf cart.
Amazingly simple and worked very well. The engine ran backwards to achieve reverse.
Blew my tiny mind... :urban:

I think kx65 and rm65 intakes fit those manifolds, and they are a little straighter. I was thinking about trying one but never did.
