Hello Mark :D ,

Well cannot find any Documentation of KAE or KA3 Markings? - Mystery? :?

KA1 or KAE-1 is H1/H1A then markings seem to jump to KA4 which is H1B?

KA5=H1C
KA6=H1D/E/F

Finish on "S" Series Carb Clamp Bolts is the Yellow/Gold Color (Multi-Passivate Zinc)

One for you Mark - How many S3 Cylinders did you leave for me at Higgsy,s? - Let us know if poss :roll:

ttfn - Keith :D

I have KAE carbs......3 are 'windowed' so are early 69 but I have a couple of non windowed KAE as well :? Even got a few with just KA on as well. The US import h1b I have does not have KA3 on the carbs........can of worms methinks :roll:

I believe KA3 would be H1b carbs fitted to the H1b sold in the U.S. only on bikes with the top trumpet before they fitted the rear airbox vents, they then went to KA5's :wink:
