A little treat for Brumby lovers
Twin carby engine is going great guns, it is an absolute rocket machine and effortless to drive. Engine does not really warm up which is my fault because my radiator fans are locked on - need to go see a sparky about a modification to the temperature sender circuit.
Fouled the spark plugs completely after a couple of weeks - they were absolutely black - could be a combination of engine running cold and more fuel or perhaps the carbs are dumping far too much fuel in.
My mechanic mentioned to me that V&E Rigoli used to race a Brumby...they normally do fuel injected stuff but maybe they might be interested in a side project...

After so many adjustable and electronic devices to turn on/off thermo fans in all my cars over the years I returned to the good old sender in the radiator. Got a 88 degree one with 82 degree thermostat. Relay, fuse. That's it.
I run a relatively small Alfa 33 radiator on the trike and thermos rarely come on mainly traffic in summer. Bolt in and forget.
The less digital/electronic devices on my machine the better.
