You're still better of with the 60mm one and use the Dellorto screw on bellmouth as the aperture is 16mm bigger so should allow it to breath better. Smaller one 44mm [if you can find one] fits Mikuni TM24 and Delly PHBL 25 carbs.
Is this the size I'm getting

Not sure, I think the hole in the middle is the same size either way, the plastic 'standard' one has a bigger OD, and needs a bigger hose...but does that really mean a bigger flow?

Hi Simon,
it's the 60mm one, it fits over the screw on bellmouth.

I used to use one on my TS1 (MB RaceTour tune, Mikuni TMX on V-Force 3) and the small divet in the rubber caused by the panel pressing it in was enough that when I really gave it some from a standing start, the rubber bellows got sucked up to the carb opening, choking it off. Not good. I'm now looking at the Marchald short filter.

Mine is a little on my S2, I took the elbow off as it kept collecting the spitback fuel & bogging down, just got the foam directly onto the carb now & its squashed a bit but runs a lot better.

I've got cut down side panels on my gp but I'm sure the foam would still hit the panel may look at it weekend . May also try drilling 1mm hole to drain spit back from rubber bellows

Maybe have to look at shortened manifold as well ?
