[QUOTE="westgl, post: 97440, member: 2025"] The 34PICT3 An excellent choice for a single barrel carb. i have two of them. I was going to run them on my GL1100 last year but the whole move to another house through me off track. I was going to flip the oem manifolds around so the rubber faced out, instead of in, then bend a "U" shaped tube to go between the two cylinders, and have the carb sit on the top of the apex of that "U" the carb would be positioned more over the valve cover. it should have still allowed me to change spark plugs, but long life plugs are available. The single 34PICT3 run great on the GL1200 per Sergey and Blueridgerunner they are both running them and say they have plenty of power. As Jungo is about to find out. When I was running around on just the 32mm primary, it seems fine power wise, good cruise-able power, & I was using my 1-1/4" ID Hose, I am hoping for more power out of 1-3/8" ID tubes at all four corners, and No hose collapsing, and blockages, should be better all the way around. But the 34PICT3 has a larger Primary, than the 32DFT, 32mm so the 34PICT3 should provide some decent power. Also another benefit to the 34PICT3, is it has a smaller overall Carb body, that is a plus, this means you can keep the elec choke, If you have NOT seen the video of sergey, starting his GL1200 w/ 34PICT3, it is NICE!! He just advances the throttle about a quarter turn, this activates the elect. choke like a car then he hits the starter, starts and runs at a fast idle like a carburated car would, very nice. They look like they are easy to tune for the GL1200, and to work on, you can get your hands in there easy, two adjustment screws, 2-1/2" turns out, your done. [/QUOTE]
