    The Bing is going.
    Seeking to buy a Mikuni VM34 for my 1979 125cr.
    Where can I find info re jet sizes etc.
    Could also do with advice re intake and carb/air box boot etc so I can set it all up properly.
    Thank you

    Don't rule out a Lectron !
    I won't fit anything else now I have them on both of my 390's.
    Not cheap, but well worth it.

    I found the best way is to order one directly from Motorspotz in the U.S. Price is not much different from the UK. But Kelly is a Husky rider so knows the score. They will ask you for the two diameters and the overall length. The carb will then fit perfectly. Yes, they come set correctly for your bike. There are no jets, just a metering rod and a "power valve" screw. Simplicity at it's best.

    Kelly can be found on this site under 'Motorsportz'. Send him a PM. There are loads of threads on this site. Both in this side and the modern.

    I ran the Lectron on my Mag last season. Had the Mikuni on it prior to that and a stock Bing prior to that. The Bing performed the best , the Lectron wa easiest yo tune and the mikuni worked trouble free but lacked in performance when compared to the Lectron and stock Bing..
