I have a 78 kz650-B2A. Mukini carbs. Can you tell me if the slides are mechanical or vacuum?

I thought so. They move with throttle? I had to order some. That's what I got.

The KZ650-B2A model had the smaller VM22SS carbs and reduced hp (60 vs 64). Ed

So are the slides manual. Just curious cause that is what I ordered and I have to take them to the mechanic. Don't want to take home the wrong one.

The slides I ordered on eBay said "these slides are from a mechanical style not the vacuum style"

did that mouse have stainless steel teeth and play on a few james bond movies by any chance? :blink:
im wondering what damage a mouse could do to aluminum carb slides,are you sure it was caused by a mouse?
and if the slides were damaged what about the bore the slides ride in on carbs? B)
