1978 KZ200 With No Carburetor

20 May 2014 18:23

Hello! I am brand new to this forum and also new to motorcycles. I just bought my first one last Sunday and it is a KZ200. I wanted a project bike so I could learn how the thing works so I can understand how to maintain it once it is fixed. I am very mechanically inclined and willing to learn!

But since I am such a noob, I have a question: since my motorcycle is lacking a carburetor completely and the pw26 Keihin that comes stock on it is so hard to find, how do I find a suitable replacement carb? Do I measure the opening where the holder plugs into the cylinder head? Mixing ratios?

Thanks for any and all help!
