*sigh*  Seems to be true.  Picking your brain seems to help too!  Why does that kit from Japan have so many different jets in it for each carb?  No indication of what they are in the description.  Any ideas?

A lot of members use Cruzinmage but, you must keep the value of the order down to avoid custom charges. They are only showing a picture. You will get a full carb repair kit from them.

I've used 5+ sets of the cruzinimage carb kits for my 750's - generally good but be very careful about using the pilot jets supplied in the kits. I've had several fail (ie shear) on installation - and trust me that wasn't  down to me being heavy handed. I always buy new keihin pilot jets to supplement the kit. James.

It's great that you have come on here MrT asking loads of sensible questions. Just what these forums are all about. You will soak it all up and then become one of the knowledgeable guys on your model of bike and pass it onto to Newbie's. It perpetuates so that there is always going to be somebody on here with the 'knowledge' . I  knew F all about the CB750 in 2008 but loads about the 400/4. You soak up all of the info from various sites/individuals  then feel that if you ever went on Mastermind your specialist subject would be "................"  . You guessed it! Keep em coming!

Cheers .. Ash

James, i have found that a little Vaseline helps the parts to fit a lot better. I always used tap2 until the day i ran out. Found a old jar of vaseline as a replacement for tap2 worked a treat.
