650 heads
« on: March 05, 2017, 12:04:47 PM »
Are there different inlet port spacings between CB650 heads. I know carbs changed but wonder about casting changes?

Thanks

If anyone has both model heads I sure would appreciate a picture of both heads together intake ports up.

Not asking much huh?  ;D

Yes 81 / 2 went with a wider spacing on the head to accommodate the carbs. I was told the DOHC 750 uses the same carb with diff jets.    Some one years ago did some work to find how to make them interchange.  seemed like a lot of work to not get the right carbs
