Looking for carbs for a 650 katana. I kind of ruined mine trying to remove a stuck mixture screw. Any help would be great.

If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.
If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Sorry tom but no photos this time as it's a little embarrassing. I got an easy out to remove the screw but broke it off. I then ruined where the screw goes in. It just broke away on me. Going to be a costly stuff up this time. Not many of these carbs getting around in Aussie land.
I've broken a few easy outs myself- they're just too brittle, a quality left hand drill bit is more likely to work. The BS32 carb body is used on lots of models (see attached chart) - with different jets and rack spacing, so you might find a replacement.

Thanks Tom your link is pretty helpful. Cheers.
Coontaboy, the entire basis of this forum is from people who did things wrong. That's why someone will probably have worked out a fix. Don't worry about being embarrassed, we've all been there in some form or another. Knowledge comes from experience and experience comes from mistakes
Plus, there's a Parts Wanted forum lower down
