So it jus seems to be r6 an zx9r carbs? Owt else? Can you also use blackbird carbs? Am going to bike breakers tomoro thats all, gonna pick up a set, wasnt sure which ones to get tho... Actually i still dont know which ones to get

Blackbirds are 42mm so better suited to a 2L.

Any with 36mm + bore will be fine. Fireblade cbr 900 are very nice and about 40mm.

We have CBR600 carbs on our 1.8 silvertop, bike carb workshop manual here

Bogg brothers are the people to speak too.
