Minkuni carb conversion

[Warriorrider1146]

I have a 87 warrior and I'm getting rid if the oem carb and putting a minkuni vm-38 on it. Has anyone done this because I'm not sure what to do about the throttle cable hitting the gas tank now. Also what should I do about a choke cable because my old carb had the knob on the carb itself. Anyone advice would help

I have the mikuni 36mm flatside and the choke is just like the stock carb. I think mswarrior actually had that one, lets see what he did

On the throttle cable issue; the cable itself had a 90 degree bend where it went into the slide cap. It never hit the tank.
As for the choke; it didn't have a cable, same plunger with the lever style actuator.

Josh is spot on. Because I'm running his old carb and I love it.

the rubber part on top where the cable attaches is being smushed by the gas tank when is mounted.

You can loose the rubber boot it doesn't do anything. And get a 90 degree cable and it clears just fine. It's a great carb and stupid simple to adjust.
