VM28 SS throttle slide length (79-80 KZ1000) was created by racerx311
Why are the VM28 SS carburetor throttle slides longer in length than the VM26 VM28 throttle slides on the Z1-KZ900 or 77-78 KZ1000?

Are they 2.0 slides? That could be the reason.

The early Z1's had 2.0. Lean. You would file off .5mm to make them 1.5. How much longer are they?

do not have exact measurements at the moment. I will measure them when I return to the shop. You filed .5mm off the base of the slide ??

No but I might with my 33's. My 75 came with 1.5 slides. Rich. The 74 and early 74's had 2.0. If I don't get there with jetting that's what I will do.
