look like standard Keihin cb750 carbs to me...used from '71-76...they had various id numbers through out the years, but the only difference was main jetting...what year bike and what original equipment will determine which jets to try first

thanks!  i also googled some images and they look like 657A carbs.  Not what I need.

The guy selling them is asking $50 (cash, pickup)

That's worth buying anyway. Clean them /rebuild them and re sell them at a profit. Or sell them to a member at cost + shipping. Full sets in that shape like that are getting harder to find for $50.

Duanod is correct but I would look inside the bowls first. I have PDs I think there should be some markings on the bodies??

Ebay has a few sets for about 50 right now in similar shape.  I'm currently rebuilding my CVs from my DOHC and my PDs from the '78 750 i picked up, so I'm balls deep in carbs right now.
