You can measure the carb throats (closet to the head) but they look like Kawasaki 34 mm CV's (used on 900 Eliminators etc)

yep... very "sportbike" styled.  i even had to go out to the garage to see if i had that very same set sitting on a shelf... nope 
the ones on my shelf are from of a 96 zx7
pretty much identical in every way except the float bowls sit at an angle from the rest of the carb body because the engine sits at an angle therefore, the float bowls have to be twisted to make a proper bowl.

Yes...those carbs pictured are sidedraft. I'm very sure either an Eliminator or 900 Ninja if they measure 36mm
