Carb Identification Help

#1

Post by Eengers »

I recently acquired this set of carbs in the attached pictures, and would like some help identifying them. I got them with a bunch of other parts from a guy who had passed away and his brother and nephew were getting rid of everything. He had some old CB750 parts there, as well as a couple CB900 bikes, so maybe these went to those? No identifying model numbers I can find on them other than Keihin and that's it. Just trying to figure out what I have here.

Looks like CB750 to me. K2 (1972) at least, not sure which model then used those up to. Not quite as desirable as the early early model with the 4 pull cables out the top, but still worth a decent amount to somebody if you don't plan on using them yourself.
1997 Valkyrie- Light Cutomization, but Too Busy Riding
1980 KZ1300- Bike's Haunted
1976 GL1000 (Yellow)- It Runs (Poorly) and Doesn't Leak (Mostly)
1974 Velosolex 3800- Better Than Walking
1972 CB750- Broke the Chain And Ate the Motor
1969 CT90- The Most Fun You Can Have on 90ccs.
1965 CA77 Dream- Needs a Full Teardown, but Complete

All advice I give is only valid until an expert corrects me.
