Got one on a 650 if you want a nose and listen. Just by brands hatch.

Brave man and the best colour scheme on any z900.

If your talking about the filter on the end of the tube? I've used these as replacements for years. They are solvent proof.

Nice, I take it someones holding her upright at the rear as the wheels aren't turning and no center stand. Even quite like the Merc in the background.

Yes please paul.

Its a two colour process. Silver first then the red (I don't know the code soz). If you don't put silver down first the candy red will be very very dark and won't match.

Open/close Paul, to suit 650/900/1000 vm carbs

Guys, anyone got a quick/fast action throttle they are willing to let go? Wanted for my 650 period custom. Its got Renthal bars on it but they are the same diameter as stock 650/900/1000/KH/H1/H2 etc. Probably the same as 99% of bikes of the period. Twin cable obviously.

Hardest bit is setting cables to the correct tension on re instalation which is eay to do. If your striping them down for a clean just ensure you keep the bits together for each carb.

Just check the drain screw o rings before taking the carbs off. If it is leaking from the drain screws then taking the carbs off is a little excessive. Orange / golden syrup is evaporated modern fuel. Short term fix if its o rings is a smear of silicon gasket goo around them before screwing back in....
