Ive used a keyster from these, www.nrp-carbs.co.uk/shop/index.php?route=product/product&path=35&product_id=4510 been in over a year no probs and made in japan, some people prefer original parts, ive used these but there not cheap www.allensperformance.co.uk/index.htmlif you go for the cheaper option just inspect first as they may not have the quality control of mikuni, always check for any swarf etc, clean the carb out with carb cleaner and compressed air, spend the time getting everything set up just right. just out of interest allens wanted £50 for the needle and clip, the keyster kit includes that and its half the price, |

What is the exact mikuni model number of the carb fitted to the Rd125lc? Vm26ss?
A brand new mikuni vm26 carb just sold on eBay for less than £50. Would this fit straight on an Rd? It was listed as a pit bike carb.

Hello,
Mk 1 has VM24ss
Mk 2 and Mk 3 has vm26ss
Be carefull with these carbs who come cheap
They are mostly chinese imitations and not the quality of a real mikuni
