They don't carry our carb kits. Yet...
I'm sure they'd bring them in for you if asked, though.

MIKUNI TM 24 from jet200.com the best a man can buy IMHO. well worth setting up correctly.

Possibly worth a look at the KOSO 28mm Flatsides on Ebay...very good value and come with variety of jets.
Chiselspeed support these carbs as they are KEIHIN pattern carbs and use the same jets, cable choke, etc.
Scootering did a test on KOSO's some years back and they reported back favourably...may not have been this particular model, I can't remember.
Mikuni TMX 27 or Dellorto VHSA 28 would be nice genuine items that would probably suit...but cost 3 or 4 times as much as the KOSO

The 25mm dellorto is hard to set up and gives more than 1bhp less than the 26PHBH also the 26 can be purchased for about half the price of the 25.

Don't be muddled with thinking the 25mm dellorto is any good when compared to the TM24. Its rubbish in comparison. Size is not everything. Driveability / mileage / mid range pull is more usefull. Also casa 210 nice but costly for the end result.

24mm mikuni is much better than any of the sub 28mm delortos.

Just a word on koso carbs. The parts range is limited. Therefore adjustability is limited. I dont think they have different size valves either which may be an issue so be careful if you go this route.

Koso: I thought original PWK spares work/fit, same as on the PWK we sell. Thus not a worry, no?
