1980 CB650 vs CB650C engines

Postby Med55025 » Sun Mar 29, 2020 9:04 am

I’m looking to buy carburetors to rebuild in my CB 650 C, I assume the C (for Custom) is just a trim package and there’s no difference in the engines?
Long question short, if I bought carburetors for a 1980 CB 650 they would fit just fine on my 1980 CB 650 C?

If your bike has PD slide carbs then you can replace them with another set of PD slide carbs but not the later CV carbs as the inlet spacing's are different.
