    Rob,

    I was wrong

    I went and looked at my 33s and yours are different

    The Kawasaki pumpers that I've seen have a pumper on the #2 float, not the add on you've got

    I may be able to vapor blast those for you

    1981 GS 850 (anyone want a project?)
    1981 GPZ 550 (backroad screamer)
    1970 450 Mk IIID (THUMP!)

      Yup, these are looking more and more like Kawaski 28mm carbs, not sure if they are smoothbores or just plain stock Kawi 28mm. Nancy, who is the original owner of this bike and did all the mods says she can't remember if the carbs came from the Yoshi tech shop in Chilliwack or a local shop she used that had Kawasaki and Suzuki's, so they could easily be kawi carbs. All very interesting. Now who knows what I do with this accelerator pump???

            Those are early kz900 28s, with the accellerator pump added. The linkage between the outer carbs is a thin metal plate that bends easily, making synchronizing them a nightmare. I would not consider them an upgrade, but an older, cruder set of carbs.
