Chinese vm22 carbs

[thomaslouis]

Hello
I'm looking for a spare carburator for my 200e and I was wondering if the chinese vm22 on ebay would fit. It says 26 mm, but I can't find the info in the ytm manual.
Tanks for your input.

Just curious but do you still have original carb? If so why not do a rebuild kit on it? I looked into the chinese carbs for my 185s thinking it would be easier but after doing some research the chinese carbs are very hit and miss. Some guys say they bolt them on and they work perfect and others say they have had to jack with them almost every time they run the bike. I decided to stick with the original amd rebuild it. Just my 2 cents worth.

^^ X2 I hate these chinese carbs so much. Just do a quality rebuild on the current one you have and you shouldn't have a problem. Ive boughten a couple rides with those chinese carbs and they cause me nothing but problems. Just my 2 cents also.

hello;

if it's an oval bore, the actual carb size is around 2 mm less than the bore size on the engine side of the carb.
