If you use the K3 daily the carbs will be OK, if only weekly a small pain, if fortnightly a big pain, monthly or longer a damn nightmare

I remember there being a testing page in the Honda manual but you had to use a specific make and type of meter or the readings didn't work. I had a correct meter bought in Yokohama in 75 when dry docking a tanker, turned out to be the right one! Sanwa SP10D if memory serves

I agree with Trigger, its incredibly annoying when somebody tries to pass off something as being what it patently isn't to us but not necessarily to Joe public. I always try to be scrupulously honest with descriptions which is probably why I don't get as much as other sellers!!

The big difference in numbers is because in UK we kept getting K" whilst US had K3,4,5,6, and the engine numbers kept going up

No matter how reputable the shop check if they know that the guides will need reaming after fitting and need doing to an exact size or its a waste of time and money
