Hi all.
Bit of background. The Jota needs decent carbs, the 70's DelOrto's fitted were pants 40 years ago, time has not been kind.
The Laverda forum is full of re-engineered later Mikunis so I thought I'd have a go.
Trouble is, they all go for flat slide stuff that can cost up to a £thousand, a bit tasty for me. Came across these on the 'bay, the spacing seems about right with a little jiggling (dropping one of the outer carbs of course).
Advertised as 'early CBR 900, but the all the CBR's have equally spaced carbs, these are obviously off something with a central cam chain. Looked through Google images, but still can't identify them.
Go team!

Not seen anything like that before, but does it even matter what they were once fitted to? I'd lose the No2 carb with the extended stuff and crack on with fitting them.

Carbs usually have a part number stamped on them somewhere.

Have you tried typing it into google?
