    I'm guessing he is saying the flow rates are similar? Can't say I've ever tuned a DCOE or DHLA but in my experience with running the R1 carbs, very easy to set up, staying in tune well, decent on fuel consumption and throttle response is good.
     
    I have a twin set of dellorto DHLA 40's here, pulled them apart to clean up and they seem pretty complex in operation compared to the Mikuni CV carb on the R1...
     
    I have heard that with twin webbers, or dellortos you have to manage the throttle when revving the vehicle up, whereas the bike carbs you are able to just flat stick it and they manage themselves...
     
    Cheers!

    Thats crap about having to 'manage the throttle' unless they arent tuned properly. When i had 40 DHLA's and also with 44 and 48 IDF's i was always able to stamp on it and have them go, but i have seen plenty of poorly set up twin carbs that behave as you described.
    To me bike carbs seems like a good idea on a road car, relatively easy to set up and not overly expensive but i am yet to see them on a big HP motor.  I cant imagine them producing 120+ RWKW

    Make it go FASTER!
