replace carburetor to Mikuni VM30-83 was created by Gerryz

Hello everybody! Since I bought the DT 360 I have been searching for a new carb because the carb on the bike was a cheap chinese part. After a call with Topham-Mikuni in Germany they offered as a substitute for the original VM30SS a new carb called VM30-83. To connect the carb with the airbox I printed a special hose with TPU material, because the VM30-83 has an outgoing diameter of 58 mm. After some construction work here comes the result:

If anybody plans this substitute I can deliver the printing file. The hose fits very good. Not 100% but good enough I think.

Modern technology, wish I could handle it. Nice job. Now I guess you could make many other parts that can't easily be found.
