Nice modifications Bones. Those Mikunis are used by a lot of trials riders here in the UK on Bantams. The pre-65 trials rules allow them. I've always been a Dell Orto fan myself, having worked on Italian bikes, but they don't allow Dell Ortos in the rules! I'll be making a new sprocket spacer as mine is fairly worn, I really liked the oil seal holder, great idea. Best wishes, Dean.
Hi Bob.........I fitted up and test ran the bike this morning and all went very well. The carb is a VM 24 with the standard jetting in it. The customer will tune the bike to his requirements, therefore I don't know what the settings will end up. However it ran nicely as it was. Please also take into account we've gone a smaller throat size for rapid throttle response and I'd go for a VM 26 if it was for a road bike.
Fantastic video pal well done
Thanks Dave......

Thanks for the comment Dean. The only issue may be the carb setup is too long. I'll find out once it gets in the frame!
