Measure the engine side bore - that will tell you if you got a set of 29mm smoothbores, or old KZ900 26mm. The bottom of the bowl is the big clue - those were the only two Mikunis commonly used on the Kawasakis that have that centered drain plug.

LOL. I wondered what all the fuss was about.
I posted that he did not give us a picture, and he never responded. Not sure what is going on with him or whether he has been back on since his first post.
