Pre70 legal Carbie
« on: September 21, 2011, 11:54:57 pm »
I am sure it has been covered a dozen times but I acn not find it so here goes.

Is a 32, 34 or 34mm Mikuni VM carbie legal for Pre70 VMX?

Reading the MOMS it appears that it is but sometimes things are not as clear as they seem

A side effect of Mikiuni carberising your steed will be. Probably start within 5 kicks, will idle nicely, ease of tuning and no mung and drool from tickling your Amal on your polished cases! If you can put up with those drawbacks then go right ahead. I did! Cheers Jerry
