85 CB650 nighthawk carbs on 80 CB650 Custom
« on: May 05, 2008, 08:05:29 AM »
Anyone know if the carbs off of a 1985 CB650 Nighthawk would fit on my 1980 CB650 Custom?

The nighthawk carbs seem to be readily available and the rebuild kits for my 1980 CB650 Custom seem to be gone forever.

Very doubtful.   
even the 81/82 650 carbs are diff then the 79/80.

Ok, they are CV instead of mechanical, but with little carb boot tweaking there shouldn't be any problem....
