This is advertised as a kit etc and also offers tech support it seems:

Remarkably. Rocky Point was the advertiser at the top of the last page I opened here on the ABC website. . It appears that the Rocky Point web site has been hi-jacked.

Hey James - long time!

What a bummer about this, it sounded like a really good solution.

I know a guy who has a donor bike R90/6 with Mikunis on it. I can check on it if you like.

Thanks, but the only way I'd do this is with a complete kit... I am not that gited mechanically.

Ian, the supplier you are looking for is Rocky Point cycles. I think the owner has passed away.

Sudco

Yes, they supply the carbs, but the vendor I am looking for provides a complete kit, with cables and adaptors... iow, all the details sorted out. The person who wrote the article was really happy with the results.

Sudco is the only one I know of. They are fairly big and definitely the oldest firm supplying parts for carb swaps.

Mikuni Conversion Kit Supplier?

About a year ago, there was an article in Airmail about a turnkey Mikuni carburetor conversion kit (throttle cables, adapters and carbs), and iirc, project by fellow member.

Unfortunately I do not save my back issues.

Can anyone tell me the name of the supplier of that kit?

Thanks!

Ian
