Afternoon all,

much as I love my little Honda it is proving something of a tricky customer. Narrow 17" tyres were fun to find but not as much fun as a carb gasket set.

Looking here CARBURETOR - Honda CD250UK | Honda CD250UK 1989 CARBURETOR with fast delivery to United States | Fowlers Parts it is "no longer available".

The carb is a KeiHin VE 26D ACC (?) which is almost unGoogleable. In most respects the bike seems to be a close relative of the CB250 Nighthawk, but with two carbs and two intakes. No idea if the carbs are compatible.

I was wondering if the collective brains here had any suggestions.

(I'll start another thread on what bike I should've got for ease of spares...🤦‍♂️)

Ah, cool. I’ll keep digging to see if I can find some closer to home. Thanks 👍

Thanks Bill. I'm in the UK and wish I was in the US for the availability of parts! Do you think all their staff are like the website photos 👀

Sirius is in Canada still probably to far. Eye candy is always nice . If you buy anything from CMS they always send a nice poster. Ads for parts on one side and eye candy on the other.
