"Supercharger"


          

I would like to install a supercharger on a 74 850 commando.
Anyone got a Drouin?

Hi, I have a Norton Drouin for sale last version, in un used
condition, missing the belt cover. I'm also running on on my
850 Norton. Runs great with a CV carb.

Bruce
I just read your thread on the Druin on the Norton and the
use of a CV carb. I have a 74 850 with a Druin supercharger
and the original meatering block. I am always looking for
ways to improve the setup and any info on the CV setup would
be appreciated. Thanks
Mike
Ride Safe

I recently picked up a Drouin SC. It is the last version. It
came with a spigot mount carb adaptor, in addition to the
original "fuel injection" setup. I picked up a 42mm
Keihin(harley)standard venturi carb with accelerator pump. I
hated to do it...(harley)... but it was almost new and only
$5. It was a takes offs for an S&S replacement. I made a
spigot mount adaptor and it looks good so far. They are quite
compact carb. 
CV are great carbs, but I'm hoping this std type carb will
work OK with minor jetting changes.

Hey Bob,

If you are still looking for a Drouin Spercharger for a Norton 850, my bike is a 1974. I would be willing to sell my set-up. I am considering selling the bike bike also. Private Messages only, NO email addresses!!!
