I've lightly followed the discussion about the Keihin FCR Flatsides. I've also wondered about if a marriage with the Weisco Kit & the FCR's would be good. Then it dawned on me, "I wonder what that fancy new Norton Commando 952 uses for carbs?" So, I went to their website and, lo & behold, there it was, - the new Norton 952 Commando uses the Keihin FCR flatsides (see picture below).
So, that confirms it (to me at least). If those carbs work well with a 952 parallel twin (the Norton), then logic tells me they would also work well with a 904cc parallel twin (the Weisco/Triumph kit).
It would be great to hear some input from the Norton Motorcycle Co. Technicians. Maybe someone should call (at 503-650-5390) pretending to be interested in buying a Norton so as to get information about their carb setup.

"Speedmaster" is a title not a name, - and the title is not plural.
