Posted October 12, 200816 yr Hey, does anyone know where i can get a set of carbs for my 1969 Yamaha R3? The originals for it are supposed to be Mikuni VM28's, but they've been discontinued and its a hard to find part. I've tried a few other carbs (VM29's and VM30's) but i keep run into problems trying to mount em. It seems i need an adapter or simply the original carbs but i can find neither. I wish i had more details about what the original carbs looked like but i never had em, i found the bike without carbs. This part number and illustration is all i have: part number: 15604-001 Illustration of the carb
October 13, 200816 yr Moderator Welll the RD,s and the YR5,s had vm 28 carbs but it looks as though the YDS7 had VM26 carbs so i wonder if you can get the R5 or RD350 carbs to fit R5 would be the nearest if yo can get a set, Merv
