    A 48mm Keihin carb from a late `90`s Honda Firestorm ;-?

    It`s not usually done but......I`ve got an idea .........so any
    info/breakers with one available<yes I`ve Googled> or people with endless
    sheds ;-) are welcome.

    Failing that anyone with a Keihin 44mm+ CV for sale?
    Cash is waiting.

    Right I`m off to scan TTS and look at Nox for the Muell;-)

    The 48mm Keihin was the largest carb Honda ever fitted to a production
    m/cycle, so finding a side-draught of that size or larger from a Honda
    may not be possible. I don't think any of the other manufacturers used
    anything as big as that before they moved over to injection systems on
    the larger V-twins and suchlike.

    Nah! What I need is a Keihin CVK 44mm off a pre-injection
    circa `99-01 Evo or Big-twin88.

    Not the easiest thing in the world to source as these HOG riders are so
    bloody possesive about their carbs and rarely do anything to upset the
    purity of their tractors ;-)

    Might find a maverick who`s decided to change the CV for FI.
