For those CB750F2/3 and K7/8 PD41/42 carbs...

Some of you already know, but for those who don't:
the late end of the PD41a carbs and most all of the PD42a/b  carbs used the extra-long rod on the accelerator pump: the one most often provided in 'master kits' come with the short one. :(

CB750Supply.com is carrying the long one (84mm rod length). So, even if you aren't sure while ordering parts, you can use the longer one and just cut off a few mm if your carbs got the short shaft from Keihin.

See SOHC4shop.com for info about the gadgets I make for these bikes.

The demons are repulsed when a man does good. Use that.
Blood is thicker than water, but motor oil is thicker yet...so, don't mess with my SOHC4, or I might have to hurt you.
