Title: Are these CVK carbs for a Concours?
Post by: LT South Africa on May 03, 2017, 11:29:19 AM

Please help me out here. The carbs say CVK at the top. At the bottom it says Keihin. Below that is printed V552 FH20. What does this represent? Is this the correct CVK carbs for the Concours 1000? I have attached a picture for reference.

They look to be the same, but of course the internals could be different.  Perhaps if SISF sees this he might know.  Maybe a PM to him could get an answer or opinion.

Either way. Before trying anything else I need to get the correct size main jets, pilot jets, needle jets etc.......

Mine don't come close to the manual specs

The size is 105 and I understand that it should be 125
