I'd recommend Keihin FCR flatslide carbs (from personal experience) and a Tri-Spark electronic ignition (not from personal experience but everything I've read says they make for easier starting than other EIs).

Good luck.

A single Mikuni vm carb. Add the choke kit to put your choke on the bars as well. With my MK111, there's no more fiddling under the tank anymore

. The best mod I have ever done for nortons.
