I've got 6 of them...42mm on a Honda CBX 1050 6 cyl bike - they are a fine carb, but they are prone to flooding in some circumstance leading to No 1 cylinder bent rod syndrome on CBX's.

Seen bike carbs a couple of times on A Series, they seemed to produce similar / maybe a little more power than a pair of SU's. The advantage is that they will stay correctly adjusted because they have fixed jets not adjustable like an SU.
You have two choices on bike carbs, Keihin and Mikuni, Mikuni used to be the performance carb upgrade of choice, but I suspect that both are similar now.
