Anybody like something besides the factory carb?

Mikuni VM18 or Dellorto PHBG (19, 19.5, 21mm)

I like Keihin PB series and clones.

looks like the Keihin PB extends down too far to be able to fit.
It extends 32mm down farther than the Mikuni, and the Mikuni hits the clutch cable guide

both the carbs I recommend are clamp-on which I think are easier to make work.

it's tight, but it fits. that's a 19mm clone on that particular bike.
you're right about your carbs being easier.

those bolt on carbs have to be badly "southern engineered" to connect, as you can see in that photo. kudos to the person that made it work but I'd never recommend it.

if you can make them work, they work very well. I would happily recommend a 19mm clone to anyone who wanted an aftermarket carburetor for cheap and had the tools and skills to fabricate a connection method.
