Smoothbores?

Take a look at the pictures. Are these 29mm smoothbores? I think they are but not sure. I thought they made a set of carbs from the factory that looked similar but aren't actually smoothbores but not sure. Whatcha think?[img size=150][/img]

One more. Can you put more than one photo in a topic like this?

I'm no expert on carbs but they look like the genuine article to me. Yes you can put multiple images on a single post.

Those are VM29 smoothbores. Our work email is for customer use and isn't intended to provide tech support for non-customers. If anyone ever needs my specific help with tech issues, we do have a Vintage Bike Tech forum linked off our website. It isn't KZ specific... more a general vintage bike place.

Thanks. They look like 29's to me but wanted another opinion. Took a chance and bought them for a very good price. Have to take a closer look to see what I have for jetting now.
