You might think they are sweet, wait till you actually adjust them. The 4 cables make it very hard to sync.
As for actual performance, they are no better than anything else, just more labor intensive.
Difficulties in adjustment are why honda ditched them after a year and went to the lifter style used till 76.
Sure they might be simple for everything else but I knew a number of guys with 69s and they hated syncing these carbs and how often it had to be done.
But hey, if you like them, knock yourself out. Just don't expect a 5ph jump

The ride IS the adventure. The destination is just to get gas!
