Anybody know what these carbs are for ?
« on: August 16, 2009, 09:46:25 AM »
Found two carbs in the pile o'stuff that my "basket case" is built from.  Any ideas on what they are from, or for, or why they would be mixed in with my CB750 stuff?  I don't expect to use them, so if they are of intrest to anyone feel free to PM me.

Mikuni carbs, but the only other case markings are a logo and an "ISO" cast in the carb body.

Intake side 40mm ID, 43mm OD
Output side has a manifold attached with an oval opening.

         No clue here, on what they fit, but, I'm getting the idea (only a guess, mind you, because of the cable off to the side, which would to increase the fuel flow, instead of an actual choke) they are for a 2 stroke. Now, if there is SOMEONE who might know more about what they are talking about, please step up. :D


         BTW, just where was the letters "ISO ?" Could be for Intake Side Only?"  ???

You got it Zoobie, old Suzuki two stroke carbs, 70's at least maybe late 60's.
Put them on Ebay as "highly sought after classic motorcycle carbs" you'll make a fortune. ;D

They look very similar to the carbs on my '74 Kawasaki H1:

If you want any measurements from the H1, I have a fancy new caliper I'm dying to try out. You should probably post those pictures up on Kawasaki Triples Worldwide, I'm sure they could identify them pretty quickly.
