HONDA SUPERDRREAMS CB250 and CB400N
I am wondering if it is possible to Replace the standard Twin Carburettor
with a Single Carburettor.
Has anyone experimented with this? Is it possible?
The Standard Carbs are getting difficult to find as well as being Expensive.
A 'Two into One Adaptor' would be required of course.
Any Info would be of great interest.

MMMmmmmm, very interesting, not saying it would work, and you would probably waste more money in trial and error (unless someone has already succeeded)...
The CB250 TWO FIFTY from the early '90s was single carb with a two 2-1 fitment. I suppose theoretically it would work provided the distance between the inlets and the inlet diameters were the same.
Never crossed my mind to try.

SUPERDREAM SINGLE CARBURETTOR CONVERSION
Many thanks to those who responded to my Single Carburettor Enquiry.
One reply mentioned attending Motorcycle Rallies to look for Superdream Parts.
eg Stafford on 14 October 2017
Is there a Website which lists these Motorcycle Rallies?
The only Website I know is BIKERMATCH.
Is there a better Site than this?
I live in the South East about 25 miles from London.
Regards
Wilf

Google "motorcycle autojumbles", you should find various showgrownds around the country running an autojumble that has a motorcycle contingent.

Interesting, the 250 in the vid did not sound like it was revving that high though.
The 250 Rebel (CMX?) was a single 26mm carb also

Not certain but I think the head on the rebel was built to take the single carb rather than use a manifold
