I wrote that. It's for Mikuni carbs but many of the elements are the same for the Keihin 750 carbs

If bike is a kz750/4 with Keihin carbs then you want pods described as 50mm pods

I measured the opening on my old K&Ns and got 50mm which corresponds with pods on APEs site. Aperaceparts.com
Click Kawasaki kz/gpz and scroll down to "carbs"

Sure. I believe you Ed.
I'm sure 50, 54 or even 55.7mm:laugh: will work. Just tighten down the hose clip.:)
I measured the opening/ID on 3 of mine at 49.99 - 52mm and the 4th at 53.19 so there is obviously some variation and distortion from use.
I guess I went with the designation of 50mm based on APE offering.
