Those are Mikuni VM carbs. I'm not sure what size. If you have some calipers you may want to measure the ID on the small end. They should be 24mm or maybe 22mm. VM24's or VM22's. Check the parts fishe for into too. What ever you do please do NOT purchase some junky aftermarket "carb kits". That is the wrong path to putting the carbs right. www.partzilla.com/parts/search/Kawasaki/...ycle/1981/parts.html
