I really would like to say thank you to the person that sent me these pictures, but I can't find their name.

These will hopefully help others as much as they helped me start to understand carbs.

BTW: These pictures are also posted in the album

Wow! Great pics. I didn`t have the guts to do that with my carbs.



Now which album are you refering to?

Cut out of CBX Carbs

Post by LamarX »

Hi Greybeard, these were done a few years ago with a cut off wheel on a die grinder, it took about 10 minutes each.

I still have them around, they were to teach me and my brother Yvon CBXSudbury where the passages all went and get an understanding.

It did the job well as I am now comfortable doing CBX carbs.



Glad you enjoyed them.

I have to agree! Great pics! Thanks a ton. This will definitely make working on the carbs easier. I have a set of Keyster carb kits which I planned to redo the carbs with before I put them into the bike. After all, they may have sat dry for maybe 26 years (I don't know exactly when the Turbo was installed) Anybody have any experience with these kits? Are they any good? I plan to use mainly the seals and rubber parts and stick with the original jets, but clean them
