    what carb is this?

    Just wondering what carb this is? is it a true mikuni? I have it on a lifan 150cc would there be something better that i could be running. Would the mikuni vm26 from trail bikes be better. Or would a flat slide carb be worth the money? Any other options? Thanks

    Looks like a 22mm mikuni but I have never seen a genuine mikuni with a choke like that.

    Appears to be the 22mm Mikuni-clone that has come standard on quite a few of the Chinese pitbikes. It seems to be missing the plastic part of the choke lever.







    Here is a picture of an authentic VM22 Mikuni carb...

    Its not the same as the 22mm Mikuni clones....looks more like the 28-30mm clone to me.

    It has the butter-fly choke.

    Re: what carb is this?

    its actually a china carb

    its larger than the normal china 22mm mikunis were use to seeing (poss 26mm)

    it takes the same rs / hs type jets , runs good and its nice because its a flange mount

    i have one on a bike we use for testing and it runs clean

    just never listed then online store yet
