So guys, is there anyone out there that has some Keihin Carbs, or Mikuni, that they want to sell ?
Suitable/jetted for a Nordie running an Arrow exhaust ?
Cheers
Stephen

You are just a little late Stephen-I just bought a pair from Kano-as too the jetting time will tell once I have them mounted.
Whereabouts are you-I'm in St.Neots Cambridgeshire.

The standard carbs are T-K and have one butterfly opened by vacuum, the Keihin are a different beast and open both butterfly's mechanically, they are really a race carb and lose a little low down (but quite livable) and gain a few bhp's at the top

Hi Monty, sorry for the tardy reply, I am based in Tewkesbury Glos. Good luck setting the carbs up!

Hi Kano, so you reckon a little loss of bottom end and a few extra at the top? What’s the seat of your pants telling you and is it worth the outlay?
Cheers
