    tell me what these are from

    Bought them as Xj 1100 carbs, looking at them they look identical to the bodies but the linkage makes me wonder. Called a member on here and emailed him a picture but he wasn't sure what they are.
    Maybe came from one of those midget racers...
    They are imaculate inside and clean on the outside. Only a little dust. missing two main jets, no broken posts...





    Look at the tees. one metal in the center and two other plactic

          They look like they are from a Suzi 1100 DuWayne. I have a set exactly like them that came with a parts bike I got last year.

          The spacing is wrong for them to fit an XS. See the wide space between the two center carbs?

                          Just mount them on an XS rack for correct spacing. I would try it before replacing whole set anyway.

                          NVM...I just saw the post they are 32mm....
