Review on πŸ”§ Upgraded Mikuni Round Slide VM Series Carburetor - 38mm VM38-9 by Gary Cole

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Put it on and it works great! Easy to set up

I have a 1976 Sportster that had this installed. Not the original carb of course, but someone before me installed the intake system with one of these VM38-9s. As soon as I assembled the engine, I turned on this carburetor, it started, but it worked intermittently. I was going to rebuild this carburetor but for $98 shipping I bought this new one. Put it on and it works great! Easy to set up. I also bought a K&N HD-0200 air filter which is a perfect match for the original air filter.

Pros
  • good stuff
Cons
  • problems
