If it was a Bing, a suggestion would be first to lower the needle then if it acts the same, maybe a smaller main.

Bill,
 Your Welcome. Which motor are you using Mikuni? If it is an A or B motor how did you adapt it? I am always searching for different ways.

Hello Bill

I'm looking for another Mikuni. Have any extras?? Did you use a clamp on?

Hello Bob Brizzee

On my clamp on (28mm), had an insert machined and fits like a glove, cost less than $20.

I believe the carb is from Pro Flow. Tom Greene ( TOMALE) is responsible for nearly every mechanical credit on my bike to keep them running. His efforts and ideas at the races are such a big help. I just race them and wash them.
