Waaaay Oversized Carburetor, Dude......You're headed to Boggsville.
The motor doesn't need anything over a 15mm.

From what I have learned the Mikuni VM-18 is a direct fit replacement.

I installed the 18mm Mikuni and it is perfect fit, took some time to jet it because I did some porting, matching, tuned pipe, etc. I had to make an air filter because of the close learance between inlet of Mikuni and seat post, but no problems...........


18mm Mikuni Upgrade

Cool Re: fitting a 26mm mikuni 66cc

O.K. I've Got one picked out right now to order. Maybe you can give me some advice on how to get the best performance. I am new to M.B.'s.. My plan for installation of the Mikuni involves two stock manifolds, (one with the mount cut off) connected by a short length of 1 inch hose (clamped tightly). The second man. will swing out to the left @ 135 degrees or so and I will install a K&N air filter. I just put on an exhaust pipe from Dax with a silencer. Before My 66 Chinese on a hybrid bike pulled hills awesomely (44t) and bogged on flats or down hill. With the silencer on it's exactly the opposite. What can I do to get the best of both worlds? Thanks in advance, and I've added you to my buddy list! -Bill
