Wetjet manifold question...

[special fx]

I have a Wetjet manifold and I've modified the stock 61x 44mm throttle bracket to fit the larger bolt spacing (and the larger bore), but I was wondering what the Wetjet used for a throttle bracket?? Of all the Wetjet intakes I've seen for sale I've never seen one with a bracket.

I checked out the Wetjet parts sites and all they show is a single bracket for 44mm 61x manifold.

I'll be swapping my stock x manifold for the wetjet unit this coming weekend.....curious to see if it actually makes a difference.....I'll provide an impartial report.

They had a cable mount coming off the air filter...

The wet jet I just sold had a stainless plate that mounted under the carb that holds the throttle and choke cable.

I have the flame arrestor with it and it doesn't have any mounting points for a cable or a bracket.

OK cool.....That's what wetjet shows on their parts site, but they show that for the 61x style manifold and don't show what the deal is with the special wetjet manifold. I'll assume they have a similar piece with the correct bolt spacing and bore size.

what was the out come of this. Im running into the same problem. The wet jet site looks to show the throttle cable mounts from the top of the carb and the 61x connects from the bottom. Pics would help? Please let me know....

Just use the Riva GPR throttle bracket they sell for SBN carbs on the GPR1200's.
all you have to do is flip the stock throttle drum upside down or use a muilti wheel.

I use the stock 61x brackets and simply bore the center hole to 46mm. You will also have to elongate the holes on the throttle cable plate to allow it to fit over the wider Wetjet carb base studs.....all pretty easy though.

Will try the riva set up if the stock wetjet stuff I have coming does not work... thought about modding the stock intake plate but its all TJ tuned now and I dont wanna ruin it if I cant find anymore power out of the wet jet set up.
