these work with cb550 carbs?
« on: June 13, 2010, 03:49:02 PM »
I've been looking around for carb rebuild kits for about a week now, and I came across these...

http://www.siriusconinc.com/pro-detail.php?pid=&product_id=523

Will they work with Keihin PD 46C carburetors? They look the same... All I really need are the gaskets and o rings..

Any help apprecited. Just wanna get my project goin' !!

The part number KH-1220 are the wrong carburators.. those are for the Keihin version 1.. I have the Keihin PD 46C totally different body types..

There are different kits for different years- I just ordered KH-0899 for my '77 CB550k3, $42.50 each X 4 and the slow jets at $22 for the set & $5 for airmail, total $197.00- got them in one week from Sirius.  Not cheap but they were the only place that had complete kits specifically for my bike, I'm tired of trying to clean them & messing with the air box is a major pain in the ass- so I'm hoping to do it one more time & be done with it.

Looks like they are out of stock for the KH-0899... Damn it.

Any one else have a good source for these rebuild kits????
