        Not bad. A few details are different, but the principle is pretty good.

        Roeme, use the same video for your VM carbs, except remove the throttle butterfly. Then attach the throttle cable to the slide.

          Ah! I thought there was more to, from what I read so far about how the CV/VM feel/work differently. Even better.
