Anyone recognise these?
« on: October 22, 2007, 11:41:55 AM »
Can anyone tell me whether these are 550 or 400 ?

I'm thinking of getting them as I've never stripped a set of carbs before and would feel happier on a "practice" set. If they were 550 it would give me a set of spares for Nikki Bike aswell.

My bike can be repaired.

They aren't Honda CB550 carbs either.

"it will not take much to strip and clean these"

Be afraid,  Be very afraid.

They look like Mikuni's off of a Kawi. Probably not 29mm though, maybe the 26mm version?

I'm glad I asked. Many thanks everyone.  :)

Maybe I should bite the bullet and have a go at Nikki's.  :-\
