February 10, 20233 yr Hey all, I thought I'd send a message on the forum which I've been looking at a lot lately as I've bought an old beta techno trial bike as my first bike. It's been a lot of fun but I've had some issues with the bike and the latest has been chewing up spark plugs and now not starting. It seemed to be a fuel issue and as I was investigating I noticed the carb seems to be not only not the original mikuni vm26 but a cheap Chinese keihin copy. I've sourced the original carb for $670 through beta but that is not what I want to spend. Does anyone know of a better alternative? Thanks for your time
February 10, 20233 yr Search EBAY for a good condition used oem one and rebuild internals if needed. Joe
February 10, 20233 yr Author Thanks for the quick reply Joe, can't see any available for that bike which was the mikuni vm26-208, there are vm26-606, do you know if this would work without too much modding? Cheers

February 10, 20233 yr Author There is a kit from oko Australia that I found out about through Trialtech moto Australia. Does anyone know much about OKO carbs? Cheers
February 10, 20233 yr The OKO is a very good carb. I have 3 of them on my 350 Sherpa T`s. Dennis is the bloke who runs TrialTech Moto. Make sure you get the real ones and not the Chinese ones. They are crap!
February 16, 20233 yr Author Just wondering if anyone has successfully mounted a Keihin pwk28 on a techno? Obviously the idle and mix screws are on the exhaust side so a bit of a p.i.t.a but would be great if it worked
