Carb measurements? kinda Urgent was created by Hemmek
Hello again does anybody know the measurements on the carb bridge for a kz750 E1 1980?
I am thinking about replacing my keihins for a set of bs34 but the seller want to know if I want them by tomorrow.
kinda fucked up my hand in a fit of anger :blush: (bad bad day today) and tomorrow I will be leaving for work and not be able to work on my bike until next weekend.

(I will continue my testing whit idle jets replacements even if I get those new carbs btw)

The measurements I need from the intake side of the carbs (not the filter side)
is center to center distance between carb no.1-no.2 no.2-no.3 and no.3-no.4
External diameter on the intake side.
And the external diameter on the filter side.

Best regards H

Thank goodness I don't HAVE carbs!!! BUT I have been swapping heads for years, KZ and GPZ Canadian and USA stuff. The carb spacing is the same on all 650-750 bikes I believe the boot to airbox might be the only change, (I doubt it) simple check online part search will tell you if boot numbers are the same, I think they are. My GPZ-83 INTAKE TO HEAD BOOT has a 38mm opening for carb, but has built in o-ring at 36mm that fits in groove or slot on carb neck. I only measured with ruler, not that critical. The 700 also has "34's", My book shows both carbs on same page in '83' for the kz and gpz model........no worries................Ray+KAZU...........

IIRC
Most Kaws and Suzukis share the same cylinder spacing which is 77-93-77... this includes GSX600, GSX-R750/1100 (air/oil cool), all the Z1 and KZs such as KZ650/750/900/1000/1100 regardless of early, MKII or J motor. The only Kaws I know with a different spacing are 77-85-77 and that would be the Ninja 900/1000 and the Yamaha FJ1100 and FJ1100 share that spacing.

He knows I want them so now it is just a matter of finding a cheap way to get them here and some haggling of course :evil:
