I've bought 2 of them, both snapped.	Friday, April 19, 2024
taco eater : Mickey Haddox from INDIANOLA, IA United States

I've had a vm18 on my NU50 for a while, but I've had it with the clamp snapping. Both of mine snapped in the exact same spots on the flange and for seemingly no reason. Hell! I was easy on the second one, it was running loose enough to rotate if I rode for longer than 20 minutes. Both snapped while riding down a flat road with no bumps. Great carb if it didn't snap off every 600 or so miles.

Sucks in a good way	Thursday, September 7, 2023
taco eater : Urban Spaceman from Bloomington, IN United States

The Puch Maxi i bought from a friend has this on it. Seems perfect for the 65cc Metrakit that was added to it. Probably upjetted so I recommend buying some new jets in case. Next time I take it apart I'll try to list the numbers so folks can know!

I got this carb to upgrade my motorized bicycle and this thing makes my powerband hit so hard way harder than my stock carb definitely recommend for a 66/80cc motorized bicycle motor

Good Carb, Figuring it out	Monday, June 29, 2020
taco eater : Francois Labat from Campbell, CA United States

Installed the carb with the MLM intake for AV7 moby.
I had to remove the VM18 rubber gasket at the intake, for the shim to fit. Now it holds on and doesn't fall off.
I'm having issues with the carb overflowing at high RPM, will report back if I find a solution.

VM18 Customer service	Sunday, May 10, 2020
taco eater : Brian Lestage Sr. from Seal Rock, OR United States

Best customer service in the world! Broke the clamp on my VM18, asked if it was under warrantee. They shipped me a new carb body and didn't even charge me shipping! Not expected at all. No hassle, no asking questions, just replaced it and shipped it out right away. If I need parts, I'm looking here FIRST! Thank-you Treatland, you're the best!

Buy it	Friday, September 20, 2019
taco eater : Justin Ritchie from Dayton, OH United States

Well made. Easy to tune.
Main jet is only used during 3/4 to full throttle. Needle controls the gas at about half throttle. Idle jet is for idle and about 1/4 throttle.
Spring has alot of tension too so the throttle snaps back into place when u let go.
Fancy.

Perfect	Monday, May 27, 2019
taco eater : Alexander Landerman from BLOOMINGTON, IN United States

The perfect intake for my Garelli. Looks great and easy to tune. Also, this thing gave me way more low end so that's pretty nice.

QT50 easy for beginner	Sunday, October 28, 2018
taco eater : John Swift from Bend, OR United States

so far so good. i had issues trying to get the throttle cable length right at first.... idle was waaayyyy too high.. this is my first time actually having to make mess around with cable length. I had the throttle cable in the wrong position in the cable junction box because i removed the oil pump and cable. after i realized i was stupid, it works great and is super easy to adjust, even for a beginner.

Slapped this on my stock 2013 ST, fit perfectly. Thing eats gas and air now like crazy! Just ordered a pipe and the 70 kit. Can't wait to see what it does after that!
