". But what would be involved with
using dual Mikunis from an 88 or newer any size Virago on my bike."


Should bolt right on, I think, but I haven't done it.  The Mikunis use dual
throttle cables, one to open and one to close, but there's still a closing
spring I think so I don't know if the second cable is really necessary.  In
fact, in the far back reaches of my memory I think I remember a guy telling
me that he did this retrofit and used the single throttle cable.
