Rob's Carburetor Rebuilds

CM450A Automatic Twin '82-'83 KeiHin 28mm VB24E

All of the 400-450 Twin carbs made from '78-'86 look similar, but they are VERY diverse. You have to pay close attention to the specific version to correctly rebuild and the bike they are currently installed. They are found to be interchanged and very mixed-up so just replicating current parts installed, is a recipe for disaster.  They are also 28mm carbs and will NOT work on the Shifter models, only the Auto. Notable differences in '82-'83 would be the NON-adjustable float and matching float needle. They also use a accellerator pump and have screw-in idle jets. Pictures below are the 400 style, but there is no real difference other than internal tuning and the press-in type idle jets.
