If you can help me find a set of 33mm smoothies I will make you an excelent deal on my 26mm stock carbs. My carbs are in perfect working order, I just need bigger carbs now to feed this thing. I would settle for a pair of 29mm smoothies as well.

If you use your original jets you can use a set from a 750/850/1000 which would make your ebay search easier

Well I found some 34mm carbs that I will be using. They aren't smooth bores but will be better than the 26mm's I have now for feeding this engine. I am not sure if he planned on my trading mine for them or what yet. When I know I will post, if you want them.

You could possibly make these work

Lynn, those actually look like 28mm carbs with the accelerator pump. They may be from a GS1000S (see the center vacuum tube - I didn't think that Kaw ever used that).
