How to assemble a bank of carbs

Here are four Keihin carburettors from a 1981 Honda CB900F, that have been rebuilt and need assembling into a bank, prior to fitting back on the bike.
Tips and hints on what to look for, which parts are critical, and which order to build the bank.

Having just ordered the rebuild kits for my 900F, this info is invaluable, and the clearest explanation of what is involved. THANK YOU !!

Bret Holtzman, The choke spring is very fiddly but I think you can see the j shaped part of the spring fits over the little stud. It’s in this video (not too clear) at 15:30. It’s there to add a little tension to the second choke bar. Hope that helps

Hey, Alder! First of all thank you so much for these videos they are super helpful, particularly for me here in Mexico City. Wanted to ask if you could offer a bit more specific detail on how to assemble both intake throtle linkages, im having a very hard time figuring out how the small spring must me placed. Thanks so much again!

Hi Oscar. I'll try to post another video to show the spring placement.

Hi Mr Alder, thank you for sharing your knowledge, this helps a lot. Can you please let me know what is the function of the black pipe that is in the middle of the carbs ? Thank you

[@aldermarsh6776]

It's the breather pipe.

Thanks for your videos on the cb900, I have found them very helpful, im just wondering where you buy your carb rebuild kits and jets from?

[@aldermarsh6776]

Thanks Tom. I get my Honda spares from either CMSNL in Holland or David Silver spares in the UK. Hope that helps. G

Alder Marsh Thanks, I hadn't seen cmsnl before, it looks like a useful site, If you're ever doing any work on your engine, a video of that would be great!
