Re: Carb ID numbers

Gs 750 late 70's. I would tend to agree. The date code on them is Sept 1976, so would have to be a very early GS model (assuming they are Suzuki) Any explanation of "date code"? I am looking for the information on the identifying marks, I assume one of them is a date code then. So where c...

Re: Carb ID numbers

They are vm26 carbs, they measure 26.5mm inner diameter, roughly the same as another set of carbs i have from a z1000a2 102 5A which are vm26ss according to airevallyclassics list. I am not worried about the size of them, just wonder what they are from. A mate of mine suggested they might be suzuki.

Carb ID numbers

Anyone recognise what these carbs are off? They are Mikuni VM26mm carbs, measure 26.5mm inner diameters.
Numbers under the choke lever are 450 60 and opposite side is R9 11
See the attached pictures, just wondering what they came off.
