Triumphrat

Any body know anything about keihin carbs? I found 2 in a box of old Triumph parts. The guy I bought them from said they were stored in about 1974. I would put a picture on here if I knew how. There is no part number or anything. There is a small #3D and near that(not close) is the letters JC and the other carb has the #3D and the letters JB. They are 32MM(at the manifold) and have quite a large chrome cover on the top. The manifolds bolt on the head and the carb slips into the other end. They are held in by clamps. If you can post a picture and know what I'm talking about, post it for me please. I could use the info.Thanks

Hondas used them as OEM carbs. Idont know about the
specific carbs you have there. The manifolds sound like standard jap carb to brit head style usually used with mikuni carbs. Take a look at T140E carbs the mountig style/type is almost the same. Most of what I know

They sound like CV (constant velocity) carbs to me. I wouldn't use them on an old Bonnie, but who knows, they may work great!
