069a Carbs and replacements?
Gordy Crazyjambo:
Hi all. I believe my 550F2 has 069a's. First question is does anyone know where I can get a #40 pilot jet as mine snapped in situ? Boy are they a bugger to get out 😲
Secondly does anyone have a spare set of carbs the would sell?
And finally, I've heard cb750 carbs fit and will need rejected. Which other bikes carbs fit, same inlets etc?
David Silvers are sold out of all 550 carb kits who I believe is everyone's second port of call after here 😁
Nurse Julie:
It's the 500 carbs that will fit Gordy 😉
Gordy Crazyjambo:
This is why you should always join a knowledgeable forum and listen to absolutely nobody else outwith said forum 😂 so far was told cb750 and fzr carbs fit....and they dont 😋
Trigger:
A custom bike with pods will need a custom carb kit, no good looking at a standard kit ;)

500 are straight bolt on, the jets interchange with the 550 ones no problem. Visually identical but very minor internal mods.

Now this is getting scary 😲 pilots are certainly 40s. Haven't checked mains yet. With someone mentioning kickstart looked like 500, minds in overdrive here 😂
