Keihin PD46A rebuild kits?
« on: September 28, 2015, 11:17:38 AM »
Anyone know of places that would carry rebuild kits for a 77-78 CB550?  I have the Keihin PD46A carbs but all I'm finding are kits on ebay that ship from Japan and Taiwan for around 40 bucks.  Would like to find a good quality kit that I can order here in the states.

In theory I should just need gaskets, orings and float needle yeah?  Jets should be fine.

Maybe check with PartsNmore.com? They have float valves, among other things.
See SOHC4shop@gmail.com for info about the gadgets I make for these bikes.

Well for now I just ordered a kit with gaskets, orings and float needle.  I'm hoping all the original brass can just be cleaned.  I'm going to try and atleast get the carbs off and the bowls off to see how bad they look on the inside.
