slice Posted November 9, 2014 Posted November 9, 2014 Ok Peeps just a quick question. I have Mikuni carbs on my FJ, now I thought as it was winter and I usually take the bike apart and check stuff that this year it was the turn of the carbs to get a through cleaning and refurb, so I took them apart and, long story short, I f++ked one of the carbs, (Bugger!!) anyway I have a spare set so not a major drama but now I have a set of 3 instead of a set of 4 so can anyone tell me what actual carbs fit my bike? I mean can I buy a single Mikuni carb and convert it using the jets and stuff from the broken one to make it the same as the one I screwed? Is there a number on the carb body that tells me what model carb it is? or how do I identify a replacement without buying one that is different inside to mine? Any advice gratefully received as I am completely stumped in what model carb body to try and get hold of.
neversaydie Posted November 9, 2014 Posted November 9, 2014 allensperformance.co.uk supply parts for mikuni, helped me sort my virago carbs a while ago, may have the info
Moderator Airhead Posted November 9, 2014 Moderator Posted November 9, 2014 ask foamy if he will sell you one..?
Moderator drewpy Posted November 9, 2014 Moderator Posted November 9, 2014 check haynes for any model numbers. Bs34 etc
dt502001 Posted November 9, 2014 Posted November 9, 2014 Yep as drewps said normaly that info is in the manual,not always but 1 of the carbs will be stamped in small alfa numerical code just above the float bowl also.
slice Posted November 9, 2014 Author Posted November 9, 2014 Ok thanks lads will try that, foamy has sold his carbs I think so probably not a solution.
wild foamy Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 I f++ked one of the carbs,f. Dirty bastard!... i've got another set of 1200 carbs aswell, was going to use them on my FJ1100 but thats not going to happen within the next few months, by which time i will have found another donor im sure.
chedd Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 most mukuni carbs have a five diget i.d number stamped on the righthand shoulder.
