1978 CB550k Pd carb float bowl
« on: July 18, 2018, 07:33:54 AM »
Looks like mine has the hole for the drain screw stretched out and won’t keep a seal. Anyone know where I can buy a spare float bowl

PD46? Which bowl exactly? The drain screws orient differently within the four carbs (2 to the left, 2 to the right).

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of it's victim may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated, but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." - C.S.

To anyone who was keeping score it seems someone had replaced or worked on the overflow tube and the seal with the bowl wasn’t good. A generous friend gave me a different bowl.
