Can I ask what carb & set up, pipes and gearing people are running on Imola 186? Just about to stick one in a small block.

The kit is designed to rev high, don't spoil it by trying to turn it into a tourer. Short gearing and revvy exhaust works great.
Mine ran 5.4 final drive, scootrs exhaust and TMX27 Mikuni. In a foolish attempt to turn it into a motorway tourer I dropped the gearing to 5.00 and fitted a JL3 and it became a plodder that spent half it's time in 3rd trying to get back into the power band.
