Anybody have modified solexs?

[the duke]

Hello fellow hambers I have an old solex that I got at the junkyard for free and i have it running kind of and i've added ape hangers and a wicked sissy bar that my friend and i built and i was wondering if anybody had pics of a modified solex or knew about getting more power from the little engines, thanks the duke.

Duke, you got waaaaaayyyy to much time on your hands...
I own a '67 and a '72 3800. I doubt there is anything you can do to these 2 strokers, perhaps replace the engine with an 8hp Briggs?!! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif
Post some pics of that beast,
