I have those carbs, ran them on the 1.6 16v AFH but i've gone back to 36.5mm CBR600's because they're better most of the time for road use.

If you're gonna run a carb'd AFH on 900's i do recommend a 1.6 crank & rods, you can still use your pistons as long as you use high octane fuel (i used 1.4 pistons in my 1.6, compression ratio was like 12.3:1 and had no problems).

I have been very busy at work, but still been able to arrange some things:

Polished my ATS wheels for the upcoming meeting on the 15th of April:

The cylinder block is drilled for my oversized pistons, the cylinderhead has new valve guides en the valves are cleaned and polished

how did that run? was it more powerful than with 1.6 pistons then?

Awesome :)
