Some of the finest street machines in the world are using a 36mm Vm as in Kenny Cumming's NYC MK2a. I feel if he's allowed, then you sure shouldn't lose any sleep over it.sammy2chins said:Hi all. Some people were telling me to switch to Mikuni Carb on my 73 850 . They say it will run better. My question s will iT?? but will it take away from the Oringality of the bike??
How bout twin Mikuni's? Or maybe even Mark 2's? Not original, but not single. Just trying to figure out where you really stand, Mr Burlen.batrider said:Just one opinion but I think it is real shame to go single carb on a Commando.
