Default ?Why do people title ramhorn manifold as equal length?

... because they are not EQUAL length. Runners 2&3 have an extra ~45degree elbow and ~2inch piece of straight unlike runner 1&4.

I know you all know this is obvious. Just a thanksgiving day rant from myself

98% of all manifold builders are complete retards and couldn't get as far as measuring the centerline circumference properly let alone properly engineering a positive pressure manifold.

You wont see much differnce between cylinder 4&1 and 3&2. Maybe slightly more efficient in Cylinders 2&3

I dunno. Its not EQ length at all, but its a great design I must add.

Good question, you don't know how many customers refer to them as equal length as well, and I have to explain to them, that there not.

I'm just bitter because my "Wheel-hop-stopper-front-end-stiffening-bars" wouldnt sell on e-bay.

Edit: and before anyone wastes their time, I do know how they are supposed to work and the theory behind them.

Maybe you should have called them WHSFES bars. It sounds a little more elegant that way

Wheelie bars reduce wheelies but traction bars increase traction.Sway bars reduce sway but roll bars don't reduce roll.I'll stop before this gets moved to GDD.

Can you get me a good deal on a engine? I'm looking for either a 113 or a 124. I had a 124s&s in my old bike and I'm looking to build a new one. Thank-x
