VM Carb size

[Guest]

Hi everyone, I have a question to ask.
And yes I did a search but nothing came back.
This is in regards to my 1977 GS750 VM carbs.
My question is what is the size of the carb flange that the airbox screws to?
for the life of me I cant find it on the internet.. I'm thinking its 44mm but want to double check

Thanks in advance..

just measured the inlet throat O.D. on my 79 gs750L carbs this morning. they are the VM26 carbs and the outside diameter of the inlet throat is 43.6mm. that would be where the airbox rubbers or v-stacks would be mounted. according to the link below, your bike also had VM26 carbs. no idea if your carbs have been swapped out in the last 4 decades, so if ordering something to fit i'd double-check w/a set of calipers if possible.
