i just got a 1963 triumph basket case, loads of fun let me tell ya. The best thing about it is a buddy gave it to me and its my first project ever. Funny thing is one crate was parts for the bike, but the other one had some jet-ski parts......? well the problem is i need to rebuild the carbs and i wanted to make sure i got the right kit and not rebuilding carbs for jet-ski.
so what size carbs are on a mid 60's triumph 650cc?

p.s any tips on mikuni carbs or anything is greatlt appreciated

drinkNdrop,
According to the Haynes manual I have up to 1968 the Bonnies were fitted with Amal Monoblocs Number 389/25 with an 1 1/8 " bore. I suggest that you obtain a worksop manual ans also an excellent book is "Triumph Twin Restoration" by Roy Bacon.
