Hi All, been a while.

I've got a buddy who picked up a very clean XB9R motor at a recent autojumble and is looking to put it into a hardtail bobber frame. Has anyone ever successfully run an XB motor on carbs and points rather that FI & ECM?

I'm sure I remember this being done somewhere down the line but nothing's coming up on the search.

Any thoughts gratefully received as always.

Carb is no poblem but points will be.......why would anyone want points

I think he's trying to avoid the ECM so is looking for other options. Would it run on a Sportster ignition system do you know?

How's things anyway? My XB went off to Germany for top dollar back in December so have been neglecting the social side for a while.

Don't see any reason to do so, but to each his own ...
