Seem to remember somebody asking the other day about jetting for a VM28 Mikuni on a 199B but I cant find the post. I've got one fitted to one but runs like poo so just wondering if anybody knew a starting point for jetting the carb as it feels week. Don't have any spare Mikuni jets so will have to order and they aint cheap so just wondering what is the starting point on jets slide etc. Thanks

i mate it was me what was asking about the mikuni on a 199B. the jets are not that much few pound each put motocarb in your seach engin he as the jets and he is prity cheap. im leaving the bing on mine and puting a new slde and needel and new jets in it. before i buy anything esle. the bike is runing good but could do with some fine tuning. i like the 199A beter wish i hadnt sold it know i have spare motor for 199A but needs building. i ham looking for another 199A but id be after a deal with my 199B my 198A id nearly finished just took the wheels 2 be respoked.

Hi OTF , when i had a 340 bully , i tried 2 28mm mukuni's , an old one i got from a auto-jumble , then a new one i got cheap .The old one ended up with a 130 main and 25 pilot , but the new one ended up with a 130 main and a 35 pilot .Both ran very very well , loads better than a crap worn out Bing . I seem to remember, i may of fitted a 250cc inlet manifold and rubber , the 250 rubber was a better fit on the mukuni carb .

Good luck

Hi Smelling 123 - Can't remember the exact number but I do know they are the same as Woody's 340 - that's where I got the info. I did try one size leaner on the pilot for a while but changed back. By the way belated cheers Woody :)
