79 CX500?

for those of you that have M.B.S. (multiple bike syndrome) and have the "silver wing" models.
as our sponsors also have supplies for those bikes and they are popular with the "wing" crowd.

Randakk was a good friend of the late Dick in Raleigh. Dick convinced Randal that he should make carb kits for the CX family like he had for the 4 cylinder 'Wings.

There is no especially critical alignment when re-assembling the carbs. Pretty well everything will only fit one way. They are very similar to GoldWing carbs except that there are only 2 of them and the linkages are consequently simpler. If you can do GoldWing carbs you can do CX/GL500/650 carbs.
