Topic: 750a carbs

[Wheresmyclutch]

So i purchased a complete garage sitter 77 750a a year ago then covid happened. I was still stuck working 6 days a week so i thought I'm a grown up time to pay someone to do what i don't have time to. Gave my varnish filled carbs to a guy i knew that was good with bikes. As occasionally happens with guys who are good with bikes he did a bunch of meth and shot at some cops. I have no hope of recovering stock carbs. Is it really worth it to track down non existant complete 42a carbs or should i just upgrade to k carbs since I'm buying a whole set anyway. I've yet to find 750a carbs that weren't missing something. Tia

Probably easier to find K7 carbs and boots.
Same throttle return springs on the A and K7 carbs, I remember.
Easy job to shift over the throttle opener set from the A carbs to the K carbs.
Then you will of course tune your engine with a K cam and ......... !

I mean yeah she'll go 836 someday but right now really just wanting a stock matic that goes beanie beanie beanie when you push the button. I sent all 4 carbs still on the linkage/harness/im not going out to the garage to find out what clymer calls it, so i don't have any part of the stock A carb assembly. I do have access to a complete set of pd41b keihin but before i grab them and spend the time and money going through them and possibly rejetting i wanted to see if that was really a viable option.
