Can anyone identify this carb? A friend has bought it on eBay and thinks he has a Mikuni TMX35, although the description said Mikuni style. It looks different to any TMX35 I've seen, so I'm wondering what it is

Its a mikuni tm35 (not tmx) I had one set up on my Ts1 and to be honest found it better than the tmx I have fitted now!
Although im happy with the tmx it seems I had the tm set up better!

Definately not a TMX. Looks like a TM 34 or 36 as below
