Hi Graham,
I fitted the water based carb heating 10 years ago. Yes, a bit more
pipework but fit and forget otherwise. Remember, carb heating by warm air
into intake = loss of power so heating the body of carb is a better way to
go.
Regards
Brian

Do all you guys have normal standard fuel filters? Are they .1 mm ? Can't
find a spec. And what about carb heating - water based? Added complexity and
risk of leaks in my view?
Carbs should be warmed from air flow out of the side top cowl vents and from
sitting over the exhaust pipes ( mine have shielded bowls).
