The old VM carbs use to be bored as an upgrade. Seen an ebay seller that does the boring. Not cheap at over $400 a set. Care to tell us what bike you have?http://img633.imageshack.us/img633/811/douMvs.jpg

easy for a good machine shop to bore out VM26's to 28mm. After all, thats what VM28's are anyway. dont go bigger than 28mm
No idea about any other carbs though.1978 GS1085.
Just remember, an opinion without 3.14 is just an onion!Comment
