Default throttle bodies on xflow??

Ive seen a lot of videos with pinto's, 106's saxo' s ect... running on bike throttle bodies but i ve never seen a kent running on these.

Is there a particular reason for this or is it just cause owners decide so??
i was thinking of doing so on mine is it worth the hassle or just go for webbers? prices seem close so

Post up in GD you may have a better chance at getting the right info.It must have been done before , i recall flicking through an old classic ford mag at a mates garage a few yrears ago now , the article was saying the X-flow has been known to knock at the 200hp door Lovely engines on full chat sound awsome.

Don't think I've seen it either, I imagine it's quite an expensive way for the gains you'd get compared to carbs.
