I've been keeping an eye out on ebay for some bike carbs to put on my Sylva Leader pinto engine to replace the downdraught carb that pokes out through a hole in the bonnet. The carbs that seem to be recommended are the ZX9R ones but what I need to know is do I need to look out for a particular variant model or year wise. I don't want to get a bargain that is no use! They seem to come up quite regularly and vary in price anywhere from 80 to 140 quid so I am wary of buying the wrong ones.

any bike carbs will work. no need to go zx9r. im running cbr900 fireblade ones. dan e used to use these too.others use r1 carbs.

 

Its more the size of the carb to the state of tune of your engine.

 

ie don't put 600 carbs on a highly tuned 2.0, best to go 900 and above

 

so I was told when looking. ask fast dan at danst engineering. he does full ready to roll kits.

I also used CBR900 carbs.

Any large bore Mikuni's are fine.

 

Or Keihin :)
