Anyone we know?
Never heard of a twin carb conversion.
Why would you do that?

Replacing the original carbs on a CB550 by two VM34 Mikuni's is quite a popular mod in the US. This is just one vid, but there are more. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Sm8APjP9G4&t=360s

That feels wrong to me.

Twin carbs on 4 cylinder engines was the norm at one time.

Well... if it was is about a CB550K3 or -K4 with these PD carbs... The boss of a motorcycle business nearby had a CB550K3 he still hadn't found the time to work on. He had in mind to replace the carbs by... fuel injection. LOL
