Trying to work out what carbs I have for the collection of bits that will form the basis of my Kat Thou.
If anyone has a set of VM32’s close to hand I could do with some dimensions particularly the engine side bore. Photos as well would be fantastic!
I have a set of VM’s that were supposed to be the correct ones, but I’m not convinced. They measure 36mm diameter on the engine side.
I have a set of VM33 smoothbores that have been cleaned up and may use them instead, or do I sort out a set TM34’s
Would prefer to run with a full airbox and obviously a 4-1. I want the Kat to be useable on normal roads.

Re: VM32 for Kat 1000
Cheers for those measurements. My VM's that I have measure at 36mm internal on the engine side. So I assume they're VM36's.

Re: VM32 for Kat 1000
there were quite a few vm32 sets that were bored out to something like 35 or 36mm for racing, but im not sure on the exact details.
