List:
Has anyone tried to put a mikuni carb on a rotax 447 or 503? Just curious as It seems rotax use bing and Kawasaki and Cayuna use the Mikuni.

Had a single mikuni on a Rotax 503. Seemed OK. Made more power with dual bings, fuel consumption comparable.

The Mikuni is reportedly the better carburetor, but liability scared them out of the aviation market. You could use a Mikuni and it would doubtless work quite well, but you'd be on your own as far as jetting goes.
