Hi guys, I have a question for my project, a 1980 CB750F dohc.
When I first bought the bike, it came with the stock CV carbs and a set of 4 K&N air pods. I know they don't go alone so I'm thinking of getting the Cognitomoto airbox.
Yesterday, I went to the Motorcycle show in Long Beach, CA. Talked to a Japanese motorcycle customization company (I speak Japanese) and saw their masterpiece - a great restored and tuned up Kawasaki Z1. And suddenly, I came up this idea: Why would not just get a new carb?
After some research, I decide either go for the JB power CR carb (https://japan.webike.net/products/2053888.html) or Kelhin CR carb (https://japan.webike.net/products/1902634.html), they don't have to have air filter/box/pods (though you might have to clean the carbs more frequently) so I can save on the $220 Cognitomoto airbox, and don't have to deal with tuning the CV carb pain.
My question is, what is so special of CR carbs? (Forgive me for ignorance) Have anyone tried putting those carbs on a dohc CB750? How do you think my decision and if you have any other ideas for me could you please share me your wisdom?
Many thanks!!
