Can anyone Identify this carb?
« on: December 04, 2007, 05:11:52 PM »
These came with a Rebel 450 basket case we are working on... it is NOT a rebel carb. Anyone know what it goes to?

Look pretty close to what was on a 78' CB400T I used to own.  Good for mileage, useless for performance, and a real pain after winter storage.

Because of the accelerator pump they look like 1980-1981 Honda CM400 carbs.

A quick google on VB22 shows loads of references to CM450 carbs. Must be them then...

I think Steve found the correct model.

The Kawasaki KZ454 and ninja 500 have got Keihin CVK carbs with rubber diaphragms. The only Kawa model that got the Keihin VB carbs from the factory was the 1974-1976 KZ400.

Another result then from the combined minds of the global SOHC4 resource!

Aren't we great.

Also the CM400 carbs looks the same. The only difference between the CM 400 carbs on this picture and the ones ethos42 got are the letters stamped after 22A on the carb body. That's why I think Steve are correct.
