Gerard, fantastic picture. I see "Motorcyclist" on picture. "Motorcyclist" is an American magazine, actually there were two magazines named motorcyclist. Is this cover of magazine ? If so, what month and year ?
AND..... this may not be the same machine as the other white machine. This machine has a rubber upper brake hose; not steel brake line.
the only other possibility would be the steel line was replaced with a rubber hose and other parts.........
I have 4 NOS sets of carb needle kits which I bought in error to be used evidently with the German etc. exhausts. Wonder why they had a variation in exhaust types for these markets. Do you know Chris?
Cheers... AshD
Please can you give me the number engraved on the needle
Thank you
Guess it was something to do with noise restriction then and explains the needle sets I have. They would have been used for the different carburation needed for the more restrictive exhausts.
The P/N of the kit is 16012-300-611. I will try to read the number but they are in unopened Honda packaging containing needle, jet and little circlip.
Cheers ... AshD
The needle has this engraved on it 271301. with No 'K' Keihin mark but are in genuine Honda bags (jets have no markings)
The original used ones from my 9/69 diecast carbs are marked K27201
Hope this helps.
cheers ... AshD
That would be interesting.
I have some spare ("German") KO (diecast) carbs here and may have a look as well.
There is a number on the needle? I assume it is shorter/longer (?) Or are there other jets (bigger/smaller) ?
I thought that european setting was due to high speed needs.
I think the Jets in the kits are the same but the needles are different.
