Since 1960, Mikuni are best known for their licensed copies of Solex carburettors that were used on many performance Japanese cars. Today, Mikuni also have a solid business foundation in Southeast Asia especially in Thailand and Indonesia. This is because many major motorcycle manufacturers such as Yamaha, Suzuki, Hyosung Motors & Machinery Inc. and Honda use Mikuni carburettors in scooters and mopeds.
