Which Bike Carbs
delboy - 28/5/08 at 09:52 PM

I've read with interest the suggestions which say that bike carbs are as good if not better than side draft webers or similar. I'm building an indy with a 2 litre pinto and have been offered KAWASAKI ZX 9R NINJA carbs from an 'E2' 2001 Model. First are thay any good for my engine and is there other ones out there which would be a better choice?

Always worth doing a search (even though it's a bit cluncky) not just to save people answering the same question but cos there are always answers you might not get 2nd (or 3rd or 4th etc) time around.

I was pondering the same issue and came up with this .<<<Click Here>>>

Good thing about side drafts is that bike carbs are now a hot topic and you could get a great deal on Weber's, Dellortos with all the bits thrown in from someone who wants to keep up with the pack.

you can use google etc instead (just limit the search to this site in the advanced search options)
