What carbs are these?
« on: September 27, 2010, 09:19:39 AM »
Can anyone tell what these are off of? 400f perhaps?

They look like Cb500/550 Carbs.  But, I can't see the choke linkage and don't know what the carb bodies are stamped.

Definitely NOT 350F/400F.   Look like CB500 or CB550. The carb tops are the dead giveaway.....350f/400F are flat along each side of the carb top; 500/550 have the angle on each side like these.

+1 to CB500/550

Yes, the choke lever is cut off the edge of the photo, but everything else points towards the previously stated.

OK. I noticed the tops are different than the 400f. Oh well, I just wanted them for an extra set. Thanks for the replies.
