Enjoythesilence Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 Bought some 36mm slingshot cv carbs today at the local autojumble but im having trouble identifying them,they have twin fuel feed and use two cables,looks like dynojet needles as no markings and steel/alloy but the emulsion tubes are stamped either 6-x 259 or 652 x-9.they have the small square in the large square as normal.I can just about make out 1850 k232 or 1860 k232 on number one carb body. I have had a good trawl on the web but no luck-any pointers? cheers. Quote Link to comment

Enjoythesilence Posted September 1 Author Share Posted September 1 Guy said he had them on a kit car,clean inside with 35 pilots and 105 mains. Quote Link to comment
Upshotknothole Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 They're set up for a cable choke, so not GSXR, and the 1100s usually had a vertical rod for idle adjustment. Maybe 750F? But the twin cable setup is throwing me off, I can't remember what would have had that. Dynojet emulsion tubes aren't marked, Mikuni are, and Dynojet needles don't work with Mikuni emulsion tubes. So probably stock or Factory Pro. Quote Link to comment
Upshotknothole Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 @Captain Chaoswas right before deleting that post. Just looked at some WC carbs on Eblag and all the fittings match up. Some regions got 36mm carbs instead of the 38s or 40s as well. Quote Link to comment
Dezza Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 Ist generation watercooled carbs. 750 had 38, 100 had 40s. Spacings are different to OC. All the info is in the now deleted thread on carbs, so that was really helpful . Quote Link to comment

That thread had some good info, but also a lot of info that was completely wrong and causing people to try hunting down the wrong parts. Quote Link to comment
Jaydee Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 Look like Trumpet Daytona 1200 carbs to me. They are BST36SS carbs with twin feed and dual cables, and have the extended to the side idle knob. Wider spacing than than oil cooled 36's. 1 Quote Link to comment

They look really similar, but the bracket that holds the idle adjuster looks more like a W model. Found an Eblag link with the trumpet carbs to compare. https://www.Eblag.com/itm/166683597919?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=upabpsgjsow&sssrc=2047675&ssuid=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY Quote Link to comment

Maybe it would have been a better idea to just remove the incorrect information and leave the rest. Just a thought. Quote Link to comment

What was right and what was not ? There seemed to be a LOT of conflicting advice also depending on where in the world it was coming from! I guess it will always be a problem with a 'global reach' forum - so many markets, so many permutations! Quote Link to comment
Enjoythesilence Posted September 2 Author Share Posted September 2 They are definately trumpet carbs but as they were cheap and i have a lot of spare slingshot carb parts i will convert them for proper suzuki use.I have added a couple of pics(gsxf being the lower set).thanks for all the help. 1 Quote Link to comment

Enjoythesilence Posted September 2 Author Share Posted September 2 (edited) Immaterial now but i looked at all the trumpet12 carb pics i could find and they all had single cable mounts cast into the no2/3 carb,the ones i have are like the ones in the pic from a 1997 w model with bb marked carb tops.Mine still have odd emulsion tube numbers and needles. Just a fyi if someone has the same problems identifying in the future Edited September 2 by Enjoythesilence 1 Quote Link to comment
Upshotknothole Posted September 3 Share Posted September 3 The idle adjust bracket matched up with the W carbs I saw, the one for the Trumpet was different. We never got the 40s here in the states, only the 36s, and probably some parts of Europe got them as well. And the 1100Ws had dual throttle cables. 1 Quote Link to comment
