Carb Identification
08 Aug 2017 16:54
Good Evening All!
I just pulled the carbs out of my 1980 KZ1000 project and was wondering if anyone could help identify them...i was expecting to find vm28 pumpers as that's what I was lead to believe came stock in this bike...however there is no evidence of an accelerator pump and the carbs measure out at 29mm and 40mm...
Any help is as always very much appreciated.
Cheers!
Kris

You have a set of 29mm smoothbores. If you decided to clean them be gentle with all the threads.

Thanks for the info...I had kind of figured that's what they were....just didn't want to get my hopes up as I didn't pay very much for the bike and it has already gifted me an aluminum GS swingarm....
