Carb swap

[Doug]

I've been dabbling with the idea of swapping the carbs on my T100 for a pair of Mikunis.
Now I know there are kits available which use the flat-slide Kihins but at around $900,by the time I get them here they'll cost something ridiculous.
What concerns me are the throttle position sensors. Obviosly Mikunis don't have that facility.
Does anyone here have any experience with these?

I don't know anyone who has made this swap. What are the advantages of making the swap?

Just horsepower really. A smoothbore slide-throttle carb will deliver significantly more power than a similar size CV type.

I would say your big problem is those throttle sensors ! I know you can get plug ins for a lot of bikes to bypass the sensors but I have no idea if you can get them for T100 ?

Thanks for the reply. That is what I thought.

Mikuni carbs are imported/distributed by SUDCO. if anyone would have info/parts/recommendations, it would be them.
