mikuni settings
« on: 20.08. 2012 06:33 »
I am contemplating fitting a mikuni to my 55 road rocket currently running a 1 1/16" 10tt9.  Anyone have one fitted and could give the specs that work for them ie carby size (30mm?) and jet and needle size.

Regards

Speak to Motocarb, telephone calls can be cheap even from Australia. I found them friendly and willing to help even if you are not able to buy from them, www.motocarb.co.uk/

Muskrat, I was looking arpound for you and came across this http://www.gearhead-racing.com/Workshop/Mikuni.htm

I think it will give you a good starting place for the Mikuni settings. I have fitted one to my Velocette Venom and it really does transform it.  Dave.

Hi Dave,  thanks for the info, exactly what I was after. Just have to check if it physically fits.
